The patient was a 47 year-old female who had autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) with bilateral small renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We performed bilateral partial nephrectomy and radiofrequency ablation to the residual tumor. Pathological diagnosis was clear cell carcinoma,Fuhrman grade 3. Sunitinib therapy was started nine months after the operation because multiple liver metastases occurred. Twenty-six months after the operation,she died from rapid progression of liver metastasis.

Oncostatin M (OSM) is a cytokine with the unique ability to interact with both the OSM receptor (OSMR) and the leukemia inhibitory factor receptor (LIFR). On the other hand, OSMR interacts with IL31RA to form the interleukin-31 receptor. This intricate network of cytokines and receptors makes it difficult to understand the specific function of OSM.

is a gene that codes for a tumour suppressor protein involved in various types of cancer. It was first described in retinoblastoma and is segregated as an autosomal dominant trait with high penetrance. In 1971, Knudson proposed his hypothesis of the two hits, where two mutational events are required to initiate tumour progression.

Background: Apolipoprotein E ε4 (APOE4) is the strongest genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). A recent case report identified a rare variant in APOE, APOE3-R136S (Christchurch), proposed to confer resistance to autosomal dominant Alzheimer's Disease (AD). However, it remains unclear whether and how this variant exerts its protective effects.

Paired box 2 ()-related disorder, also known as renal coloboma syndrome, is a variably penetrant autosomal dominant condition, associated with renal and ophthalmological abnormalities. We report a child with -related disorder who presented atypically with acute ataxia on a background of stage 3 chronic kidney disease. Extensive biochemical, radiological and gene agnostic rapid trio exome sequencing was non-diagnostic.
