Inherited Disorders of the Kidney Flashcards
ADPKD extra-renal features?
Hepatic cysts INTRA CRANIAL ANEURYSMS Cardiac disease Diverticular disease Hernias
Diagnosis of ADPKD
Ultrasound-presence of multiple bilateral cysts
Renal enlargement
CT/MRI-when unclear on USS
How do you differentiate between autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive in children?
USS suggestion of Congenital Hepatic Fibrosis suggests recessive disease.
USS showing congenital hepatic fibrosis in children?
more likely to be RECESSIVE disease
Young children and constantly associated with hepatic lesions.
Autosomal recessive kidney disease
Chromosomes in ADPKD?
Chromosome 16
Chromosome 4
(chromo 16 has higher risk of earlier renal failure)
Cysts appearing from the COLLECTING DUCT SYSTEM?
Autosomal recessive kidney disease
Epithelial lined cysts arising from a small population of renal tubules?
Autosomal DOMINANT kidney disease
Effect of liver cysts?
(present 10 years after renal cysts)
Liver function generally well preserved
Can result in SOB, pain, ankle swelling
Intra-cranial aneurysms affect who?
Tend to be seen in clusters of family members so screen!
ADPKD
Which type of ADPKD patients are most likely to suffer from diverticular disease?
Those on dialysis
2 serious GI side effects of ADPKD
Diverticulitis
Colonic perforation
Increased chance of which type of hernia with ADPKD?
Abdominal/inguinal
Cardiac disease seen in ADPKD?
mitral/aortic valve prolapse
Gene involved in childrens autosomsal recessive kidney disease?
Chromosome 6
