Data Collection
Congenital Abnormalities+24
+ Abnormalities, Multiple
+ Ciliopathies
Summary
Study start date: December 1, 2003
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.OBJECTIVES: * Obtain laboratory identification and confirmation of research results for gene mutations in participants previously enrolled in NCI-99-C-0053 who have von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome or who are at risk for VHL syndrome. * Determine genotype status in these participants. OUTLINE: Participants submit a blood or buccal sample for genetic mutation analysis. Participants may receive genetic counseling and/or the results of genetic testing, if desired. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A maximum of 260 participants will be accrued for this study.
