Q

What is medullary cystic kidney disease?

A

cysts in the medullary collecting ducts –> parenchymal fibrosis –> shrunken kidneys –> renal failure

22
Q

What congenital anomaly has a high rate of horseshoe kidney?

A

chromosomal aneuploidy syndromes, such as:

  • Turner syndrome
  • trisomies 13, 18, 21
23
Q

What is polycystic kidney disease (PKD)?

A

bilateral enlarged kidneys with cysts in the cortex and medulla

24
Q

Is renal agenesis unilateral or bilateral?

A

can be either

25
How does a pt get polycystic kidney disease (PKD)?
it's inherited (auto. dominant and auto. recessive forms)
26
Where is a horseshoe kidney normally located?
in the lower abdomen
27
This causes hypertrophy of one kidney --\> renal failure later in life.
unilateral kidney agenesis
28
What is the underlying mutation that causes autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD)?
mutated APKD1 or APKD2 gene
29
Why do pts with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD) have HTN?
increased renin
30
Dx? * Young adult with: * HTN * hematuria * flank pain * freq. urinary infections * worsening renal failure
autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD)
31
What is autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (PKD)?
* bilateral enlarged kidneys with cysts in the cortex and medulla in an infant * cystic dilation of the collecting ducts
32
What other pathology is autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD) associated with?
* berry aneurism * hepatic cysts * mitral valve prolapse * \*\*\* "think cysts in the kidney, cysts in the brain, cysts in the liver"
33
Dx? * cysts in the medullary collecting ducts --\> parenchymal fibrosis --\> shrunken kidneys --\> renal failure
medullary cystic kidney disease
34
What is the prognosis for medullary cystic kidney disease?
poor
35
If a baby presents with s/s of portal HTN, think \_\_\_\_\_.
autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (PKD)
36
How does autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD) present?
* Young adult with: * HTN * hematuria * flank pain * freq. urinary infections * worsening renal failure
37
Where does the kidney develop in the embryo?
in the pelvis
38
Dx? * bilateral enlarged kidneys with cysts in the cortex and medulla in an infant * cystic dilation of the collecting ducts
autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (PKD)
39
What is renal agenesis?
the absence of kidney formation
40
What kidney problem do all these chromosomal aneuploidy syndromes (Turner syndrome; trisomies 13, 18, 21) have in common?
high rates of horseshoe kidney
41
On which chromosome is APKD2 found?
ch. 4
42
This is a conjoined kidney, usu. connected at the lower pole.
horseshoe kidney
43
What does unilateral kidney agenesis lead to?
hypertrophy of the existing kidney --\> renal failure later in life
44
When does autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (PKD) present?
usually in infancy
45
On which chromosome is APKD1 found?
ch. 16
46
Is dysplastic kidney bilateral or unilateral?
* usu. unilateral * if bilateral, distinguish from polycystic kidney disease (PKD)
47
Is polycystic kidney disease (PKD) unilateral or bilateral?
ALWAYS bilateral
48
How does a pt get dysplastic kidney?
it's congenital but NOT inherited
49
What are the components of Potter sequence?
* lung hypoplasia * flat face * low set ears * developmental defects of extremities
50
How does congenital hepatic fibrosis present?
s/s of portal HTN
51
This is when the ureteric bud fails to develop and induce differentiation of metanephric mesenchyme --\> Ž complete absence of kidney and ureter.
unilateral kidney agenesis
