Various mutations in the VHL gene on chromosome 3p25-26 are responsible for von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome. We report on a Japanese VHL family in which two of the three affected members developed acute occlusive hydrocephalus that necessitated emergency surgery for ventricular shunt or drainage. Direct sequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis identified a germline missense mutation, Proline-to-Leucine, caused by a C-to-T transition at the second nucleotide of codon 157.
