ABSTRACT
Although brain metastasis of renal cell carcinoma is a major cause of death in Von Hippel-Lindau disease(VHL), it is not easy to distinguish local recurrence of hemangioblastoma from distant metastasis. In addition, heman-gioblastoma has several characteristics suitable for recipient of "tumor-to-tumor metastasis". Authors report a case of Von Hippel-Lindau disease that had metastases of renal cell carcinomas.
Key Words: Von Hippel-Lindau disease(VHL); Renal cell carcinoma; Tumor-to-tumor metastasis
