AI Article Synopsis
- A 38-year-old man with von Hippel-Lindau disease developed two small renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) and a larger metastatic tumor in the diaphragm.
- The diagnosis was confirmed through percutaneous biopsy, and he underwent laparoscopic resection of the diaphragmatic tumor and cryoablation of the RCCs.
- One year post-treatment, the patient has survived without signs of cancer recurrence or further spread.
Article Abstract
We report the case of a 38-year-old man with two von Hippel-Lindau disease-associated T1a renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) (<2 cm in diameter) which developed into a 2.5-cm solitary diaphragmatic metastatic tumor. After diagnosis using percutaneous biopsy, the diaphragmatic metastasis and two RCCs were treated by laparoscopic resection and percutaneous cryoablation, respectively. One year after treatment, the patient survived without local recurrence or distant metastasis. This report describes a rare case of RCC metastasis in VHL disease and its treatment.
