Patients with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease develop multiple distinct kidney cysts and clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCCs) throughout their lifetime. Although cysts are typically considered precursors of ccRCC, no molecular evidence of cysts to tumor progression was provided to date, due to the lack of an accurate molecular characterization of these lesions. We performed a comprehensive molecular...
