Few studies have focused on this population. Hence, we aimed to elucidate genotype-phenotype correlations and clinical outcomes in VHL patients with LDs. METHODS: We included 119 VHL patients from 50 unrelated families in whom LDs were detected using traditional and next-generation sequencing methods in this retrospective study. Other germline mutations were confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Genotype-phenotype correlations and survival were analyzed in different groups using Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression. We also evaluated the therapeutic responses to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) therapy. RESULTS: The overall penetrance of patients whose age was <60 was 95.2%. Two VHL patients with LDs also carried CHEK2 and FLCN germline mutations. An earlier age of onset of retinal hemangioblastoma was observed in the next generation. The patients with exon 2 deletion of VHL had an earlier onset age of renal cell carcinoma and pancreatic lesions. The risk of renal cell carcinoma was lower in VHL patients with LDs and a BRK1 deletion. The earlier onset age group received a poorer prognosis. Four of 8 (50%) patients showed a partial response to TKIs therapy. CONCLUSIONS: The number of generations and the status of exon 2 could affect onset age of VHL-related manifestation. Onset age was an independent risk factor for overall survival. TKIs therapy was effective for VHL patients with LDs. Our findings would further support clinical surveillance and decision-making processes.
