  • Title: A plea for conservation of kidney in renal adenocarcinoma associated with von Hippel-Lindau disease.
    Author: Pearson JC, Weiss J, Tanagho EA.
    Journal: J Urol; 1980 Dec; 124(6):910-2. PubMed ID: 7441848.
    Abstract:
    We report 3 cases of bilateral renal cell carcinoma associated with von Hippel-Lindau disease. Treatment consisted of local excision or simply shelling out of the lesion from the surrounding tissue. The 3 patients are free of disease (followup 6 to 36 months). Although multifocal the lesions are removed easily; thus, normal renal function is preserved and patients are spared the morbidity and mortality associated with hemodialysis or transplantation.
