Complexities in estimating the true risk of hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma and the development of kidney cancer

Currently, the incidence of hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC), as well as the penetrance of kidney cancer among patients with HLRCC, is unknown. Large‐scale genomic databases may be unable to accurately estimate the incidence of HLRCC.
