Cystadenoma of the Rete Testis in a Patient With von Hippel-Lindau Disease

von Hippel-Lindau disease is a rare, inherited multicystic disorder that is characterized by several benign and malignant neoplasms (Odrzywolski, 2010). Classically, the disease manifests itself in a broad spectrum, including renal cell carcinomas, intracranial and spinal hemangioblastomas, endolymphatic sac tumors, renal and pancreatic cysts, and pheochromocytomas. Another important, but commonly forgotten manifestation is the cystadenoma of the rete testis.
