Patient's question:
Before, I never knew what polycystic kidney disease was, nor did I know what its origin and characteristics might be. But now it seems that there are more and more patients with polycystic kidney disease. I wonder how many out of 100 people have polycystic kidney disease?Doctor's answer:
It's hard to say how accurate this is. In middle-aged ADPKD patients, about half suffer from polycystic liver disease. After the age of 60, approximately 70 people believe it develops slowly, about 10 years later than polycystic kidney disease. Cysts are formed by the dilation of labyrinthine bile ducts. Additionally, cysts can also occur in the pancreas and ovaries, and the incidence of colonic diverticulosis is very high. Therefore, everyone needs to take preventive measures in advance to avoid the occurrence of this disease.
