    These patients may also develop uterine leiomyomas as well as papillary renal cell carcinomas, also known as hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC). The disease has been linked to mutation in the fumarate hydratase gene on chromosome 1q42.3-43.52–58 Leiomyomata may also affect the external genitalia, including the nipple, scrotum and vulva (genital leiomyoma).
