Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma syndrome-associated renal cell carcinoma showing the classically described prominent nucleoli with perinucleolar clearing. H&E stain. (WC/Nephron)

Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma syndrome (abbreviated HLRCC), also hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer, is an uncommon syndrome caused by fumarate hydratase (FH) gene mutations.[1][2]

Characteristics:

General

  • Autosomal dominant inheritance[3] with variable penetration.[4]
    • In one series of 21 families: 62% renal cancer, 76% had cutaneous leiomyomas and 100% had uterine leiomyomas.[5]

Features - clinical:
