ADPKD Flashcards
What is Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
Inherited disease causing Renal cycsts and extrarenal manifestations incl hepatic cysts, intracranial aneurysms and aortic root dialatiation
When do patietns with ADPKD typically present
30-60 - renal cysts start affecting kidney function
Presentitng symptoms ADPKD
Haematuria
Loin pain
HPTN
Recurrent UTIs
Kindye stones
Headache
Cause of ADPKD
Mutation in PKD1 or PKD2 coding for polycystin 1 or 2 (membran proteins)
What do renal cysts cause
Increased kidney volume
Compression of normal renal architecture
Intersitial fibrosis
Tubular atrophy
Progressive renal impairemtn
Which ADPKD type is more severe
Type 1 - more severe symptoms. 85% cases. Chromosome 16 rather than 4 in type 2
What can a headahce in ADPKD be a sign of
Ruptured berry aneurysm and subsequent SA haemorrhage
Signs of ADPKD on examination
Palpable kidneys/abdominal mass
hepatomegaly due to hepatic cysts
Abdominal wall hernias
Cardiac murmur
What cardiac complications can ADPKD cause
mitral valve prolapse, mitral regurgitation, aortic regurgitation and dilated aortic root
HPTN -> CHD, stroke, MI
Symptoms of renal filure in ADPKD
Develop on 50s
pERIPHERAL OEDEMA
sob
POOR appetitie and weight loss
Polyuria
Pruritis
Nausea
First line investigation ADPKD
Renal US scan
Why is creatinine and eGFR not first line in ADPKD
Nomral in early stgaes - not sensitive test
What criteria is used for diagnosis of ADPKD
Ravines
Ravines criteria for 15-29 years ADPKD
Presence of 3 or more renal cysts - uni or bilateral - 94.3% sensitivity for type 1 ADPKD 69.5% typ2 2 ADPKD
Ravines criteria 30-39
2 or more rena cysts 96.6% type 1 sensitivtiy + 94 type II
