AUTOSOMAL-DOMINANT (ADULT) POLYCYSTIC KIDNEY DISEASE

Autosomal-dominant (adult) polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a hereditary disorder characterized by multiple expanding cysts of both kidneys that ultimately destroy the renal

parenchyma and cause renal failure.[10] It is a common condition affecting roughly 1 of every 400 to 1000 live births and accounting for about 5% to 10% of cases of chronic renal failure

requiring transplantation or dialysis. The pattern of inheritance is autosomal dominant, with high penetrance. The disease is universally bilateral; reported unilateral cases probably

represent multicystic dysplasia. The cysts initially involve only portions of the nephrons, so renal function is retained until about the fourth or fifth decade of life. ADPKD is genetically
