Q

PKD. AD PKD. symptoms - why pain? 3

A

due to rupture of cyst, infection or passage or stona

22
Q

PKD. HTN, bilateral palpable masses, flank pain, history of UTI or gross hematuria.?

23
Q

PKD. pain due to rupture of cyst, infection or passage or stona

24
Q

PKD. polyuria and nocturia

25
Q

PKD. AR PKD - symptoms?

A

HTN, abdominal distension, flank masses - most commonly presenting findings. IDENTIFIED PRENATALLY.

26
Q

PKD. AR PKD - symptoms - in what age identified?

A

IDENTIFIED PRENATALLY.

27
Q

PKD. in both - what symptom?

A

may have large, palpable kidneys on abdominal examination.

28
Q

PKD. what finding does not suggest AD or AR PKD?

A

A single, simple renal cyst
it does not require further evaluation

29
Q

PKD. Evaluation instrumental?2

A

UG (most common) or CT scan

30
Q

PKD. what is seen on instrumental?

A

multiple bilateral cysts will be present throughout the renal parenchyma and renal enlargement vill be visualised.

31
Q

PKD. need genetic evaluation?

A

available but often not necessary.

AD PKD - PKD1 and PKD2 (called polycystins)
AR PKD - PKHD

32
Q

PKD. screening criteria?

A

> 18 y/o + family history –> may be offered screening ultrasound

33
Q

PKD. treatment main idea?

A

prevent complications and decr. rate of progression to ESRD.

34
Q

PKD. a) early management of UTI to prevent renal cyst infection.

35
Q

PKD. b) BP control (ACEI, ARBs) - to reduce HTN induced renal damage and control proteinuria

36
Q

PKD. c) decr. sodium intake

37
Q

PKD. d) lipid control with satin - to decr. CV risk.

38
Q

PKD. when dialysis?

A

dialysis ir transplantation in ERDS

39
Q

PKD. high fluid why give?

A

High fluid intake needed to prevent kidney stones and may be helpful to prevent cyst development since ADH stimulate cyst growth.

40
Q

PKD. what medication may be used?

A

Vassopressin rec. antagonist are also been approved for use.

41
Q

UW. AD PKD. clinical presentation?

A

asymtomatic untill 30-40yo
Flank pain, hematuria, HTN, palpable mases bilateral, CKD

42
Q

UW. AD PKD. extrarenal presentation?

A

cerebral aneurism, hepatic and renal cysts, mitral valve prolaps, aortic regurgitation, colonic diverticulosis, ventral and inguinal hernias

43
Q

UW. AD PKD. diagnosis?

A

UG shows multiple renal cysts

44
Q

UW. AD PKD. management?

A

aggressive control of risk factors for CV and CKD

ACEI for HTN preffered

Hemodialysis, renal transplan ESRD

45
Q

UW. AD PKD. flank pain - why may be?

A

due to cystic rupture or nephrolithiasis

46
Q

UW. AD PKD. HTN mechanism?

A

cyst enlargement –> localized renal ischemia –> incr. secretion of renin

47
Q

UW. AD PKD. why poliuria and nocturia?

A

due to cystic damage to nephron distal tubules with impaired sensitivity toward vasopressin signals –> urinary concentrating defect (ie mild nephorgenic DI)

48
Q

UW. AD PKD. renal dysfunction to CKD - why?

A

due to cystic progression

49
Q

UW. AD PKD. cerebral aneurysm. mechanism how occurs?

A

disruption of polycystins cause impaired vascular integrity, leading to cerebral aneurysm

50
Q

UW. AD PKD. cerebral aneurysm. what may contribute?

A

HTN also contributes by facilitating aneurysm progression and rupture
