Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell carcinoma (HLRCC) syndrome is a recognized distinct phenotypic variant of multiple cutaneous and uterine leiomyomatosis. The present case reports an extremely rare case of HLRCC syndrome combined with adrenocortical carcinoma. The case suggests that HLRCC should be considered in any young patient with bulky uterine leiomyomas and renal cell cancer, and F-FDG PET/CT can help detect unexpected additional primary malignancy in a patient with known cancer.
遗传性平滑肌瘤病和肾细胞癌（HLRCC）综合征是一种公认的多发性皮肤和子宫平滑肌瘤病的独特表型变异。本病例报告了一例极为罕见的 HLRCC 综合征合并肾上腺皮质癌。该病例提示，对于有大的子宫平滑肌瘤和肾细胞癌的年轻患者，应考虑 HLRCC，而 F-FDG PET/CT 可帮助检测已知癌症患者中意外的其他原发性恶性肿瘤。
