Sinonasal renal cell-like adenocarcinoma (SNRCLA) is a rare and relatively novel diagnosis. Hereditary and somatic genomic signatures are not well defined in this disease. We report the case of a 35-year-old African-American male with von Hippel Lindau (VHL) syndrome who developed SNRCLA. He underwent surgical resection followed by adjuvant radiation and has no recurrence one year from diagnosis. A review of the literature yielded two similar cases in the setting of VHL. In our case with associated VHL syndrome, next generation sequencing detected MST1R mutation, a possible driver. SNRCLA is an emerging tumor associated with VHL syndrome and it is hoped that future studies shed light on the underlying biology of this unique tumor.
