In one out of six young individuals with polycythemia and high erythropoietin levels we found a heterozygous VHL gene mutation (430G->A;Gly144Arg). The man's unaffected mother and sister carry the same mutation. No other VHL genomic or expression alterations were found. In one other patient different genetic conditions were found.

Abstract

In one out of six young individuals with polycythemia and high erythropoietin levels we found a heterozygous VHL gene mutation (430G->A;Gly144Arg).
