-
A rare genetic congenital secondary polycythaemia disorder characterised by increased haemoglobin, haematocrit and erythropoietin serum levels and normal oxygen affinity, which usually manifests with headache, dizziness, dyspnoea and/or plethora. Patients present an increased risk of haemorrhage, thrombosis and early death. There is evidence this disease is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the VHL gene on chromosome 3p25.
