Overview
In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of defined hereditary syndromes, some of which may predispose to kidney cancer. Hereditary renal cell carcinoma syndromes are often suggested by early age of onset, family history of kidney cancer, multifocal or bilateral lesions and the presence of other extrarenal lesions typical for the respective syndrome. The most common encountered syn‑ dromes are von Hippel Lindau, Birt-Hogg-Dubé, hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma, hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma, succinate dehydrogenase deficient renal cell carcinoma, tuberous sclerosis complex and Cowden syndrome. Related to hereditary renal cancer syndromes, germline mutations in tumor suppressor genes (VHL, BAP1, PTEN, TSC1, TSC2) and protooncogenes (MET) are described. Different histological subtypes are found among hereditary kidney cancer syndromes. The degree of kidney cancer penetrance, tumor aggressiveness, metastatic potential widely vary and the treatment and surveillance of kidney cancer is different among hereditary syndromes.
