Abstract
SDH mutation associated renal cell carcinoma can be an aggressive type of kidney cancer, especially in younger individuals. Although detection and management of early tumors is most often associated with a good outcome, based on our initial experience with these patients and our long-term experience with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma, we recommend careful surveillance of patients at risk for SDH mutation associated renal cell carcinoma and wide surgical excision of renal tumors.
