Polycystic Kidney Disease is the most common genetic, life
threatening disease characterized by the growth of numerous fluid-filled cysts
in the kidneys.
These cysts grow and multiply over time, slowly replace much
of the mass of the kidneys. Ultimately, the diseased kidney shuts down causing
end-stage renal disease for which dialysis and transplantation are the only
forms of treatment.
Polycystic Disease
can cause cysts to develop in your liver, pancreas, membranes that surround
your brain and central nervous system, and seminal vesicles. If PKD affects
the brain, it can cause an aneurysm (a bulging blood vessel that can rupture).
