Hereditary Leiomyomatosis Renal Cell Cancer - Study of the Genetic Cause and the Predisposition to Renal Cancer

* What gene changes (mutations) cause HLRCC * What kind of kidney tumors develop in HLRCC and how they grow * What the chance is that a person with HLRCC will develop a kidney tumor

People with known or suspected HLRCC (and their family members of any age) may be eligible for this study. This includes people in families in which one or more members has skin leiomyoma and kidney cancer; skin leiomyoma and uterine leiomyoma; multiple skin leiomyomas; kidney cancer and uterine leiomyomas, or kidney cancer consistent with HLRCC, including, but not limited to, collecting duct or papillary, type II. Candidates will be screened with a physical examination, family history, and, for affected family members, a review of medical records, including pathology slides and computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans.

Participants will undergo tests and procedures that may include the following:

* Review of medical records, x-rays, and tissue slides * Physical examination and family history * Skin examination * Gynecological examination for women * Interviews with a cancer doctor, cancer nurses, kidney surgeon, and genetic counselor * Blood tests for:

1. Genetic research to identify the gene responsible for HLRCC 2. Evaluation of liver, kidney, heart, pancreas, and thyroid function 3. Complete blood count and clotting profile 4. Pregnancy test for pre-menopausal women 5. PSA test for prostate cancer in men over age 40 * CT or MRI scans (for participants 15 years of age and older only) * Skin biopsy (surgical removal of a small sample of skin tissue) * Cheek swab or mouth rinse to collect cells for genetic analysis * Medical photographs of lesions * Questionnaire

When the tests are completed, participants will discuss the results with a doctor and possibly a genetic nurse or genetic counselor. The genetic findings will not be revealed to participants because their meaning and implications may not yet be understood. Participants may be asked to return to NIH from every 3 months to every 3 years, depending on their condition, for follow-up examinations and tests.
