A CASE OF ATYPICAL LINDAU'S DISEASE.

Abstract

The case to be described is unusual in presenting most of the changes of Lindau's disease without any cerebellar tumour. In addition there is evidence of a hereditary tendency to the disease, as four relations of the patient suffered from progressive visual defect, and one other had an intracranial tumour. The patient herself had an hkmangioblastoma in one retina and two in the other, an hemangioblastoma of the spinal cord with extensive syringomyelia and cystic pancreas and kidneys.
