Ocular Manifestations Of Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) Disease

Extractions: to improve diagnosis, treatment, and quality of life for people affected by von Hippel-Lindau disease. Ocular Manifestations of von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) Disease From a talk presented at the VHLFA Patient/Provider Conference, May 1997, Bethesda, Maryland Often patients o not have symptoms as these lesions tend to progress slowly. The tumors can be detected in children to adults in the eighth decade of life on a routine exam(7,9). Symptoms such as decreased vision or a turned-in eye (crossed eye) may results in the detection of VHL in children. Decreased visual acuity can also cause adults to seek medical help and subsequent detection of the disease. The importance of maintaining good visual function in patients affected with VHL depends on regular dilated eye examination (with the pupil of the eye opened with drops). For patients who are at risk of developing VHL, an annual dilated eye exam will provide important information and help maintain good vision. Good vision can be achieved and maintained in many affected individuals, especially if the lesions are detected and treated early in the course of the disease. References 1. Melmon KL, Rosen SW.

Extractions: Treatment for VHL varies according to the location and size of the tumor and its associated cyst. In general, the objective of treatment is to treat the growths when they are causing symptoms but while they are still small so that they do not cause permanent problems by putting pressure on the brain or spine, blocking the flow of cerebrospinal fluid in the nervous system, or impairing vision. Treatment of most cases of VHL usually involves surgery to remove the tumors before they become harmful. Certain tumors can be treated with focused high-dose irradiation. Individuals with VHL need careful monitoring by a physician and/or medical team familiar with the disorder.
