Patient's question:
The son was carefully diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease, adult-type polycystic kidney disease. I had never heard of this disease before and was particularly worried and anxious. I would like to ask if adult polycystic kidney disease patients are serious?Doctor's answer:
Adult polycystic kidney disease is generally caused by chromosomal abnormalities. If this condition reappears, it is usually accompanied by hematuria or kidney swelling. In addition to potentially being caused by hypertension, there is currently no specific treatment or method for this disease. In the late stages, it may lead to kidney failure and near-death. Patients with adult polycystic kidney disease must actively cooperate with their doctors for treatment. Proper body conditioning in the later stages can help control the condition.
