  • Title: Metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor to the central nervous system in a patient with von Hippel-Lindau disease: A case report and literature review.
    Author: Reynolds MR, Crilly SM, Sweeney KJ, Farrell M, Rawluk D.
    Journal: Br J Neurosurg; 2015 Apr; 29(2):291-3. PubMed ID: 25232806.
    Abstract:
    Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (NET) is frequently encountered in patients with von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL) and uncommonly metastasizes to the central nervous system. Here, we present the case of a VHL patient with symptomatic pancreatic NET metastases to both the cervical spinal cord and a preexisting brainstem hemangioblastoma (e.g., tumor- to-tumor metastasis).
