[Extra-renal manifestations of the autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease].
Revue Médicale Suisse 2017 Februrary 23
Extra-renal complications of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) are often unrecognized. Liver cysts are usually benign, but may cause chronic pain, may interfere with nutrition and may necessitate partial liver resection or even liver transplant. Somatostatin analogs may be an alternative therapy. Cerebral aneurisms are rare, but devastating. They must be investigated in case of positive familial history. Cardiac valvulopathies will be searched for by echocardiography. Abdominal wall herniae are often identified during the physical exam in ADPKD patients. ADPKD patients may present with higher incidence of diverticulitis. Cysts of the seminal vesicle are frequent but are usually asymptomatic. Recognizing extra-renal complications helps improving the overall survival of ADPKD patients.
