Polycystic kidney disease is a genetic disease. According to genetic characteristics, divided into autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) categories. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney common. ADPKD is autosomal dominant, which is characterized as having familial aggregation, can the incidence of male and female sexes equal opportunities for involvement, successive generations may occur in patients. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, also known as adult polycystic kidney disease, polycystic kidney disease is common. Due to the deepening understanding of the disease, the prognosis is significantly improved. ARPKD is autosomal recessive. Almost all parents equally no history. Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease, also known as infantile polycystic kidney disease, polycystic kidney disease in for a rare type. Chang died shortly after birth, only a handful of lighter types, can survive to childhood and even adults.
ADPKD symptoms common in adulthood. Cyst has existed at birth, grow up gradually over time, or occur in adulthood and development has not been fully elucidated. However, most patients with lesions in the fetal period may already exist. The vast majority of renal abnormalities. Inconsistent on both sides of severity. Its features are: whole kidney cysts filled with varying sizes, with diameters ranging from just a few centimeters to be able to distinguish. Nipple and cones often illegible. Renal pelvis significant deformation. Capsule with liquid urine, bleeding or infection was different appearance. Cyst was progressively older, related processes may be associated with cell proliferation, cell secretory function of changes in the surrounding tissue and cysts impaired. ARPKD cyst epithelial cells cultured with ADPKD not display the same properties: ADPKD cyst fluid in endotoxin or Gram-negative bacteria, and no ARPKD cyst fluid.
Six signal polycystic kidney appeared to be alert, there are the following:
A family member of someone suffering from polycystic kidney disease, kidney cysts. Because how often accompanied by polycystic liver cyst, liver cyst, splenic cysts, pancreatic cysts, brain aneurysm, abdominal aortic aneurysm, diverticulitis and other gastrointestinal diseases, so when themselves or family members were found to have the disease than those who should Special attention polycystic kidney disease, renal cysts occur;
Second, people long polluted environment of life, or exposure to toxic chemicals (including administration of nephrotoxic drugs) or radiation person;
Third, the abnormal changes in emotions, especially over the long-term depression or panic people;
Fourth, hematuria or mild proteinuria onset period (to be differentiated with nephritis) persons;
Five, overwork, including excessive physical labor, excessive mental work and lack of physical exercise or training methods, strength improper who were excessive labor room, etc.;
Six, waist, abdominal discomfort and partial unexplained hypertension or renal dysfunction, and so on.
If you have the above symptoms, you should see a doctor immediately to avoid delaying your disease.
