Renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) are rare in the pediatric population; when they occur, a significant percentage are associated with specific cytogenetic abnormalities and germline mutations. These include mutations in the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene and translocations involving the TFE3 transcription factor gene on Xp11.2. Here we report a case of a 3-year-old child with a large renal mass. Histologic examination of the tumor showed a predominantly nested growth pattern with some papillary foci. Cytogenetic analysis revealed a karyotype of t(X;1)(p11.2; p34.3), consistent with a TFE3-associated RCC. Interestingly, sequencing of the patient's VHL gene revealed a single point mutation, previously seen in a subgroup of patients with von Hippel-Lindau disease. This is the first reported case, to our knowledge, of t(X;1)-associated RCC in a patient with concurrent VHL gene mutation.

Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is a tumor syndrome that frequently involves the central nervous system (CNS). It is caused by germline mutation of the VHL gene. Subsequent VHL inactivation in selected cells is followed by numerous well-characterized molecular consequences, in particular, activation and stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factors HIF1 and HIF2. The link between VHL gene inactivation and tumorigenesis remains poorly understood. Hemangioblastomas are the most common manifestation in the CNS; however, CNS invasion by VHL disease-associated endolymphatic sac tumors or metastatic renal cancer also occur, and their differentiation from primary hemangioblastoma may be challenging. Finally, in this review, we present recent morphologic insights on the developmental concept of VHL tumorigenesis which is best explained by pathologic persistence of temporary embryonic progenitor cells.
