PKD1 (85%)
PKD2
when do the symptoms of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic kidney disease occur
adulthood
what are the symptoms of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic kidney disease
many renal cysts = enlarged kidney liver cysts = pain, ankle swelling chronic pain hypertension haematuria renal failure
what are the investigations of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic kidney disease
US
CT/MRI if US is unclear
what would you expect to see on US of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic kidney disease
multiple bilateral cysts
renal enlargement
what is the treatment of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic kidney disease
control BP
reduce cysts
dialysis/transplant if kidneys fail

what is alports syndrome also known as
hereditary nephritis
what is the cause of alports syndrome
disorder of type IV collagen matrix du eto COL4A5 mutation
how is alports syndrome inherited
X-linked
what are the symptoms of alports syndrome
haematuria
sensorineural deafness
ocular defects = anterior lenticonus
proteinuria = late stage

renal biopsy = variable thickness of GBM
what is the treatment of alports syndrome
no specific treatment
address BP and Proteinuria = ACEI/ARB
dialysis/transplant
