INTRODUCTION Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is an inherited disorder that is characterized by the development and growth of cysts in the kidneys and other organs. Urinary protein excretion is usually less than 1 g/24 hours in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, and an association of nephrotic syndrome with this condition is considered rare. There are only anecdotal case ...

A 38-year-old man with known autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) was electively admitted to our institution for open bilateral nephrectomies. A routine computed tomography scan had demonstrated a cyst at the upper pole of the left kidney with changes suspicious of malignancy and para-aortic adenopathy. His serum creatinine level was 510 mmol/L and the estimated glomerular filtr...

A captive 10-year-old female northern pintail (Anas acuta) with a history of unilateral lameness was diagnosed at necropsy with polycystic disease most severely affecting the right kidney. The lameness was attributed to pressure on the sacral nerve plexus caused by the unusually large cyst arising from the right kidney. Polycystic kidney disease previously has been considered an incidental find...

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is defined as a hormonal disorder that prevalent among women of reproductive age. It affects the metabolic, endocrine, and systems body well mental health. We compared up to 20 peer-reviewed literature displayed relationship between PCOS searched PMC/NCBI/NIH database we used following keywords while searching database: "polycystic ovarian syndrome" or "PCOS" "m...

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is a multisystem disease involving many organs. An association with other diseases such as tuberous sclerosis, von Hippel-Lindau disease and Marfan syndrome have been previously described. We describe a 35 year old female with achondroplasia who developed polycystic kidney disease involving both kidneys and progressing to end-stage renal disease. To ...

For quite some time the field of polycystic kidney disease has led a life at the fringe of kidney research, but with the cloning of the PKD1 and many other genes this situation has dramatically changed. Polycystic kidney disease often is a syndromic disease affecting a variety of organs in addition to the kidney. Most of the proteins involved in polycystic kidney disease have been localized to ...

A 59-year-old man with abnormal vascular features (intracranial aneurysm, a cervical arteriovenous shunt, bilateral internal jugular vein occlusions, and left transverse sinus hypoplasia), as well as left optic atrophy was suspected to have familial polycystic kidney disease. The possibility of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease complicated by Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV due to the...

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: Polycystic ovary syndrome can be divided into different subtypes, including insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between serum asprosin levels polycystic subtypes. METHODS: A total 93 women with 77 healthy as controls were selected for study. clinical laboratory data compared group control group. further subgroups:...

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is a common hereditary disorder characterized by renal and extrarenal, cystic and noncystic manifestations. Connective tissue defects, including cerebral aneurysm, meningeal diverticula, abdominal wall hernias, intestinal diverticula, and cardiac valvular abnormalities, are widely known manifestations. Instead intracardiac aneurysms have never been r...
