We are not the Slaves of the Disease of PKD

The disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), as a type of genetic kidney disease, has the familial aggregation. The patients of PKD carry this disease even before their birth, and they can do nothing to change the genes. However, it doesn’t mean that the patients of PKD just can suffer from this disease and be the slaves of this disease.

“We can control this disease and we can enjoy our beautiful life”, said Xu Xiaotang, a woman patient of PKD.

Xu is from Dongping county of Jiangxi province, 41 years old. She was diagnosed as the disease of PKD 3 years ago. In the past, she always has the symptoms of backache and slight hypertension and discomfort of abdomen. While, as the mother of three children and having too much farm work to do, she didn’t take it seriously and endured these all the time. At last, she was sent to the hospital in March of 2008 because of serious pain of abdomen. In the local hospital, she was diagnosed as the disease of PKD. After years of treatment, her condition can’t be controlled and got even worse. However, she had almost spent all her money for the years’ treatment.

For many times, she almost lost all her hopes and she want to give up. But once she thought of her children and her family, she kept on trying and hoped to get better to live a happy life with her family.

Recommended by her friend, Xu came to Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital for treatment. When she was hospitalized at first, her condition was as following: BP: 140/80 mmHg, mental state is good, breath sounds are clear and there is no obvious abnormal symptoms of heart and other organs, and there is no symptom of edema of lower limbs. The B-Ultrasonic express: right kidney, 12.8*6.3*4.9cm, lift kidney, 13*6.9*6.4cm. the final result is： Polycystic Kidney Disease, the third stage of chronic kidney disease(CKD), renal hypertension and polycystic liver disease.

After the diagnosis, the doctors determined the therapeutic schedule which aims at protecting the renal function, including routine internal medical nursing, diet of low-salt and high-quality of protein, Benazepril Hydrochloride pills 10 mg per day, vitamin 0.2g per day and our Micro-Chinese Medicine.

After seven days of treatment, the symptoms of backache got relieved and the patient’s condition got stable. Then she left the hospital after 25 days.

She insisted on using the Micro-Chinese Medicine for about three month, and she came to the hospital for reexamination after ten months of recuperating. The result is: right kidney, 12.0*5.0*4.5cm，lift kidney,12.1*5.0*5.0cm. The fact has proven that after the treatment, the cysts are under control and they are contracting gradually. Xu said to us that “it is the Micro-Chiense Medicine that save me from this disease and save our family. Without it, we may not lead a normal life like now.”

The comments of doctors: as for people who have the family medical history of PKD, they should take examination to find whether they have this disease. And in daily life, if you have the symptoms of backache and pain of abdomen, do not take it easily. You should take an examination to find the accurate causes in order to find this disease early and adopt treatment in time. The earlier the disease is treated, the better effects are. In addition, though PKD is a type of genetic disease, we can control the development of it and lead a normal life like healthy persons. Just we adopt the scientific treatment and daily life habit.

Latest Treatment of Polycystic Kidney Disease

Traditionally, operations are adopted to deal with cysts of PKD patients and have gained fast and good effect on relieving patients’ illness condition. However, more and more PKD patients begin to realize that operations are another kind of trauma to kidney. Meanwhile, they are also confused about the frequent reoccurrence of cysts after these operations.On this basis, most PKD patients begin to search a method that can treat PKD with fewer operations and less reoccurrence. Is there such kind of treatment? The answer is yes. Traditional Chinese Medicine has shown its special effect on this problem. Meanwhile, based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, a new treatment has been developed out to treat PKD. This treatment has the same acting mechanism as traditional Chinese medicine, but also has better effect than traditional Chinese medicine due to its distinctive application method. In China, we call it Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy.

Different from western medicine treatment, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy does not treat PKD by removing large cysts. Instead, this treatment starts with reducing cysts fluid secretion and increasing cyst fluid reabsorption by improving blood circulation and increasing permeability of cysts wall as well as eliminating activity of epithelial cells that have the function of secreting cysts fluids. Besides, active ingredients of Chinese Medicine can supply nutritious matters for kidney to repair itself. From the above, cyst growth can be controlled and shrunk gradually and then the pressure on kidney from these cysts can be reduced. As a result, a series of symptoms caused by cysts can be relieved. Day by day, PKD patients can live a normal life in the future.


This treatment has been applied in clinical practice for many years and most Chinese persons are very familiar with it. But as for foreign patients, it is extremely new. However, with more and more foreign patients come to our hospital for this treatment, this treatment can be know by more foreign friends and it will help more and more PKD patients have a normal life as other healthy person.

Main Manifestations of Polycystic Kidney Disease

According to the clinical researches, most patients of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) have family medical history. So, people who have the family medical history of this disease, should pay attention to the manifestations of PKD in order to find it early and treat it in time. The main clinical manifestations of PKD are different according to different patients. The common clinical manifestations are as follows:

1, pain of waist or abdomen: it is the first symptom for most patients. It can be continuous or paroxysmal and this manifestation will get serious when patients are tired.

2, hematuria: it is usually one of the first symptoms for about half of the patients. It is intermittent and painless gross hematuria.

3, abdominal mass: it can be mostly felt at the midsection of both sides, and the size of the lumps is different.

4, there may be Hypertension companied with dizziness and headache symptoms.

5, proteinuria: when the cysts enlarge gradually, they will damage the renal inherent cells and lead to the damage of the function of renal cells and glomerulus. The protein will leak out from the glomerulus.

6, hypertension: with the development of this disease, many patients will have the symptom of hypertension. In return, the hypertension will accelerate the development of this disease.

Usually, patients can take routine examinations to find this disease, such as X-ray, B-Ultrasonic, nuclear magnetic resonance, CT and so on.

Common Symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease

What are the clinical symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease? In clinical, waist pain, protein or blood in urine, kidney enlargement, etc, can be found during the developing process of Polycystic Kidney Disease. Nearly all the PKD patients have family history of this disease. Generally no symptoms can be found in the early stage of Polycystic Kidney Disease. Obvious symptoms often appear after 30 years old and can also be found at the age of 80 to 90 sometimes.

Here is a simple introduction of several common symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease.

Ⅰ. Kidney Enlargement:

Discomforts on waist and abdomen are common at the beginning. The increase of renal capsular tension or the pull of renal pedicle vessels and nerves can lead to dull pain. If bleeding happens in the cyst and the blood clot block the urethra or infection happens, the pain will be serious suddenly and even cause renal colic.

Ⅱ. Hematuria: If blood vessels are broken due to the pull, gross hematuria happens.

Ⅲ. Proteinuria: Generally, urine protein is lower than 1g/24hours.

Ⅳ. Hypertension: It is commonly seen and influences the prognosis of the disease directly. It is related to the pressure from cyst on normal kidney tissues and causes renal ischemia as well as water and sodium retention.

Ⅴ. Kidney function decline: The damage to kidney may occur to patients who are over 40 years old and half of the patients over age 59 will lose their kidney function. This is related to the cystic pressure and is also relevant to other tissues that have ischemia, sclerosis, inflammation, fibrosis and the high filtration and high perfusion of the remaining renal tissues.


PKD patients may have one or more symptoms during the disease course and most patients have to take medicines to control these symptoms. Well then, what is the best way to control the symptoms? Generally, In China we usually suggest Chinese medicine treatment to repair kidneys, and then these symptoms caused by kidney injury will be relieved. We believe that Chinese medicine treatment is effective for this disease, which is also the reason why we inherit these traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions from generation to generation.

How is Polycystic Kidney Disease Diagnosed

According to the clinical experience, many physicians are alerted to the possibility of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) in three different settings: when someone reports that there is a family history of PKD; when there are signs and symptoms that commonly occur in PKD; or when a test is done for some other reason and cysts are found in the kidney.

At present, there are three main clinical tests that can be used to diagnose a person with PKD: ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

1, ultrasound is the most common and least costly screening method for PKD. A recent research study has produced diagnostic criteria that are useful for testing individuals having either the PKD1 or PKD2 mutation in the usual clinical setting in which molecular genotyping is seldom performed.

2, computed tomography (CT) and MRI scans are likely to be more sensitive than ultrasound but the sensitivity of these methods have not been systematically analyzed yet. CT scans, however, involve radiation and may also require iodinated contrast dye which can be toxic to the kidneys. CT scans or MRIs may be indicated for the evaluation of certain complications like bleeding into a cyst or a suspected kidney stone or alternatively if a more sensitive screening test with the ability to detect small cysts is deemed necessary.


In addition, DNA testing is also available for ADPKD. There are two types of DNA tests: Gene linkage testing and Direct Mutation analysis. Gene linkage can determine PKD status with a 99 percent probability in informative families. Linkage testing is not a direct analysis of the DNA sequence of the PKD1 and PKD2 genes. Rather, it relies on the identification of certain “markers” in the DNA of several members of a family in which PKD has been diagnosed. For linkage analysis, blood samples must be obtained from the person being tested (the “proband”) as well as from several (typically three or more including the proband) persons from more than one generation of the proband's family, including those affected and unaffected with PKD. A detailed family history and pedigree are also required. The results are typically reported to all family members that provided blood samples for the analysis. In contrast, direct DNA sequencing requires only a single sample from the proband. This method is a direct analysis of the DNA sequences of the PKD1 and PKD2 genes. It is private, and the results are only reported to the proband's physician and the patient (the proband). Using very sophisticated DNA sequencing apparatus, each of the nearly 17,000 “bases” of DNA are analyzed and the entire sequence is thus determined. This method is capable of identifying those changes in the sequence that is indicative of disease. It may be the only option if family members are unavailable or unwilling to participate in a linkage study. Each of these methods has pros and cons.

Lead a Better Life with the Disease of PKD

Up to now, a complete cure for the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) has not been achieved and we can do nothing to change the genes of human being. However, we are the masters of our own lives. We have the ability to make our life better, in spite of the disease. Then what should we do? There are three aspects that we should pay attention to.

First, prevent and control the complications of this disease positively. During the development of this disease, patients should pay attention to various complications of it, such as hypertension, bleeding, urinary tract infections and kidney stones and so on. To prevent from the aggravation of the disease, an important aspect is How to Control Complications of PKD?

Second, adopt reasonable diets. PKD is a kind of progressive disease, and its development is relatively slow during the early stage. The average attacking age is about 30 years old. While, there are many case that this disease doesn’t attack all the life, and there are many cases that this disease attacks during the childhood. Why? Except the stimulation of external factors, such as infections, injuries and so on, the diets are also very important for the controlling of the disease. So, in the daily life, patients of this disease should abide by the Diet Principle for Polycystic Kidney Disease Patients.

Third, lead a favourable daily life. As we all know, a reasonable daily life, including good rest habit, proper exercise and personal health habits and etc, is also very important for the illness condition of the patients. As for the patients of PKD, we must pay close attention to the Principles of Daily Life for PKD Patient.

We are the masters of our own lives. Though, PKD is a type of genetic kidney disease, we can improve our life quality and lead a better life by ourselves.

After a Kidney Transplant, Are You Cured

Although, there is no evidence that Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) occurs in the transplanted kidney, kidney transplant is not the cure of this disease? Unfortunately, there is no cure for PKD up to now. This is expected since, ADPKD is inherited and a transplanted kidney would not contain the genetic abnormality. Survival rates following kidney transplantation in patients with are similar to all other patients undergoing transplantation. Besides, after the kidney transplant, there are various complications due to the rejection and long-term medication.

What kinds of complications will a transplant cause?

A number of postoperative complications are possible:

§ Infections

§ High blood pressure

§ Rejection

§ Diabetes

There is no way to predict accurately which patients will have problems. The transplant team will do their best to reduce the likelihood of complications and to treat them promptly if they occur. Following instructions carefully and keeping the transplant team informed of any difficulties will help a patient return quickly to a normal, active life.

What about the medications? Do they cause complications?

Due to the rejection of human body, after the kidney transplant, patients have to take medicines all the life. Immunosuppressants can weaken your immune system, which can lead to infections and an increased likelihood of some cancers, including skin and lymphatic cancers. Some drugs may also change your appearance. Your face may get fuller; you may gain weight or develop acne or facial hair. Not all patients have these problems, though, and diet and makeup can help.


Therefore, kidney transplant is not so omnipotent as people think. Transplant usually is the last choice for patients when the renal function is damaged seriously. After the kidney transplant should pay attention to the possibility of various complications.

What are the Harms of the Disease of PKD

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a kind of genetic kidney disease, and the main manifestation of the kidney is that there are numerous cysts in the renal cortex and renal medulla. Some of the cysts are big and some of the cysts so small that they just can be seen by microscope. The development of this disease can be divided into five stages, including emergence stage, growth stage, swelling stage, bursting stage and uremia stage. During the early stage of this disease, it is important to adopt timely prevention, especially for the people who have the family medicine history. Once you doubt that you have this disease, you had better have a overall check in order to prevent from the aggravation of the disease. If we don’t adopt treatment in time, this disease can develop into renal failure and uremia and it will bring a lot of harms for the health and life of the patients.

What are the harms of the disease of PKD?

1, the only harm of single Renal Cysts is that this disease may develop into malignant cysts, but this kind of cases is rare. As for the harm of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), it is rather different. During the enlargement process of cysts, the harm of PKD generates with the enlargement of cysts and the damage of renal function cells, which means that PKD may lead to the end stage of Renal Failure and Uremia. Besides, Renal Insufficiency caused by PKD is rather common in clinical.

2, after the occurrence of Renal Insufficiency, PKD patients usually have different levels of complications, such as hypertension, sickness and vomit and so on. Renal Insufficiency is the main harm of PKD, and the main harm of PKD is manifested as the symptoms of Renal Insufficiency in clinical. However, most patients paid no attention to the early harm of PKD and didn't treat this disease carefully. Until the occurrence of Renal Insufficiency caused by PKD, especially the occurrence of end stage of uremia when the toxin in human body can't be eliminated out and the patients have to take dialyses, the patients have found the harm of PKD.

Therefore, PKD patients should pay attention to health care in daily life and learn more about the harm of PKD at the beginning. Adopt reasonable diets and avoid the occurrence of renal insufficiency caused by careless.


As for the treatment of PKD, we should insist the principals of early-finding and early-treating. During the treatments of PKD, we should avoid the further damage to kidney caused by operation therapy and decrease the harm of PKD caused by improper treatments in order to prevent from the occurrence of Renal Insufficiency.

Differences between Chinese Medicine and Surgical Operation in Treating PKD

In western countries, hormone and surgeries are usually adopted to treat the disease of polycystic kidney disease (PKD). PKD is a type of hereditary disease featured by excrescent cysts of different size cramming in the kidney. These cysts will gradually swell up with the growth of the body and press renal tissues. By this, renal structure will be damaged, with nephrones that produce urine becoming less and less, until it develop to Uremia-a term describing the situation that there is not enough nephrones for the basic physiological function of the body. From this, we can get the conclusion that the key of treating PKD is, under the premise of protecting kidney function, to shrink these cysts, and subsequently decrease the pressure to renal tissues.

Surgical operation has long been adopted for the treatment of PKD. But this method can only remove big cysts and. At the same time, the operation makes room for a quick growth of smaller ones. As long as there is cyst epithelial cells, cysts will surely burst out and grow up again. And no surgeon can promise removing every cyst epithelial cell. Actually, many patients suffer from the relapse of former or even worse symptoms six months after the surgical operation. This method not only fails to cure polycystic kidney but brings new trauma to patients, both physically and mentally.


Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy for the disease of PKD is well received by patients because of its grasp of the key points in PKD treating. The key is to pay equal attention to shrinking cysts as to protecting renal function, as well as combining these two processes together. After the traditional Chinese medicine being micro-processed, and through external application, they can inactivate cyst epithelial cell and prevent cysts from secreting sac liquid. By this, these cysts will stop swelling up. However, action must be taken to deal with these existing ones. Active ingredients are helpful with invigorating the blood circulation of cysts surface and enhancing the resorption of sac liquids. Finally, the liquid will be excreted out of the body through urination. This therapy aims at curing the origin of PKD. What’s more, there is generally no relapse.

The Key Points for the Daily Care of the Patients of PKD

Daily care is an important part of the treatment of the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). Though, it has no the function of treating, to some extent, it can postpone the development of this disease. In daily life, patients of PKD should pay attention to the following points of the daily care:

First, prevent from having a cold: as for the healthy people, cold is a type of common disease and it is easy to treat. While, for the patients of PKD, having a cold may cause various inflammation and infections, which will damage the kidney and renal function. Besides, many cold cure drugs contain the renal toxins.
Patients of PKD must take medicines under the directions of the doctors.

Second, adopt reasonable diet. In daily life, patients should adopt diets which are low-salt, low-sodium bur rich in potassium. Eat more fresh vegetables. Besides, take diet therapy under the direction of the doctors, which is very good for the treatment of the disease.

Third, avoid over working. Tiredness can cause the damage of the renal function. No matter the mental work or physical work, overworking will generate a large amount of toxins which will damage the kidney. if these toxins can’t be eliminated in time, they will aggravate this disease.


Forth, make sure the blood pressure under control. Hypertension is one of common symptoms and complications of the disease of PKD. On one hand, hypertension is caused by PKD. On the other hand, hypertension will aggravate the damage of the kidney. So, patients should pay attention to the blood pressure in daily life.

What Can Cause and Aggravate Polycystic Kidney Disease

As we all know, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is caused by gene problem. Actually, it is the result of the interaction of both congenital factors and acquired factors. Well then, many patients may ask the question that besides genetic factors, what other factors can cause and aggravate the illness condition of PKD patients. Here we have a simple introduction of some of these factors.
Firstly, various toxins, like some medicine, chemicals, etc, can cause damage to human body, or even threaten to human life. All these are inducements of PKD happening. Besides, toxins can also be the reasons that cause gene mutation or congenital malformation.

Secondly, kinds of infections can induce PKD occurrence. Infections can change the internal environment of body, which may be beneficial for cysts to grow larger. Besides, infections happened to any part of body can produce affect to other organs, including kidney, through blood circulation, which also promote cysts growing and bring damage to kidney.

Thirdly, improper diet can cause disease or damage to body. As a result, it will be one of the reasons that can induce and aggravate cysts growing.

Fourthly, bad emotion can also harmful. In Chinese medicine opinion, bad emotion can produce toxins in body which is greatly harmful to our body. Contrarily, a good emotion is helpful for patients to gain their health back.

These are some of the factors that can affect the illness condition of PKD patients. We can not control gene problem, but we can try our best to control these acquired factors, which can delay the development of this disease.


However, effective treatment is still the key for patients to live a healthy life. Through effective treatment and proper daily care, cysts enlargement and growth can be controlled in a certain degree which will not affect patients life. By this way, PKD patients can have a normal l

The Hazards of Proteinuria Caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease

Proteinuria is one of the most common symptoms of the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). The hazards of the proteinuria are not just the serious drain of the protein nutrition. Proteinuria will also cause the damage to the glomerulus and kidney tubules, thus it can cause the fibrosis of kidney. according to the clinical researches, proteinuria is one of the independent factors which can cause uremia. The greatest hazard of proteinuria is to corrode the kidney tissues and t cause uremia. Then what are the specific hazards of proteinuria?

First, proteinuria has the mesentery toxicity: in the model of renal failure, we can observe that the haemocyanin will accumulate in the glomerulus mesentery, which will cause the damage to the mesentery cells and the hyperplasia of the mesentery cells and the increase of combining of the various mesentery matrix, thus proteinuria can cause the hardening of the glomerulus. Besides, when there are low density lipoprotein and very low density lipoprotein in the glomerulus, the deposition of the apoprotein A and B will gradually lead to the hardening of glomerulus.

Second, proteinuria has the toxins to the proximal convoluted tubule cells: when there is the symptom of pproteinuria, the amount of protein entering the kidney tubule epithelial cells will increase, which will lead to the increase of lysosome activity and cause the lysosome spill into the cytoplasm of kidney tubules. And then subsequent damage to cells may cause the infections and the forming of scar.

Third, proteinuria may cause the cytobiology changes of the kidney tubules: protein can recuperate the function of kidney tubules directly and change the growth characteristic of the kidney tubules. The change of the protein phenotype may cause the kidney tubules basement release PDGF、FN andMCP-1, and then cause the renal fibrosis.

Forth, proteinuria may cause the aggravation of the anoxia of kidney tubules mesenchyme: the adsorption of the protein needs much extra energy, which will cause the anoxia of kidney tubules.


Therefore, protein is not just a symptom of Polycystic Kidney Disease. At the same time, it will cause various damages to the kidney tissues and kidney function.

How to Treat Proteinuria Caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease

Proteinuria is one of the common symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). Since the kidney disease has the characteristic of occult, it is hard to find symptoms of this disease during the early stage. Besides, the appearance of the symptoms is usually later than the actual pathology damage, so when patients find the symptom ofproteinuria, they had better adopt treatment timely. Then how to treat the symptom of prteinuria effectively?

To treat proteinuria, we must proceed from its resource-the continuous enlargement of the cysts, which will gradually damage the glomerulus and renal function and cause the symptom of proteinuria. After many years’ experiment and clinical practice, a brand new therapy-micro-chinese medicine osmotherapy has been developed out. On the treatment of the symptom of proteinuria, this therapy proceeds from the enlargement of the cysts. This type of therapy possesses two curative effects, the first one is: expand the vessels on the vascular wall surround the polycystic kidney disease, accelerate the blood circulation of cyst wall, promote the permeability of cyst wall, promote the inner press decrease of cysts wall vessels, reverse the differential pressure caused by intravascular pressure higher than intracapsular pressure, accelerate the vessels adsorption of the cyst liquid. The second one is: the active substance of Micro-Chinese Medicine can restrain the secretion of cyst wall epithelial cell; prevent the continuous expanding of bursa wall vessels and cysts. By this therapy, the symptom of proteinuria can be treated fundamentally without hormone and operations.

Dietary Suggestions for the Patients of Polycystic Kidney Disease

Diets are of great importance for the patients with the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). Though we can’t just rely on diet to treat this disease, for diets have no the function of treating disease, the diets can really delay the progression of the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease. So there are some dietary suggestions for the patients with this disease:

Generally, patients with this disease should not take in the food that is too salty (including pickle food), too hot and spicy (including hot pepper, liquor, shrimps and crabs and etc). Besides, patients should not eat the contaminated food (including rotted and corrupt food and leftover) and the barbeque food. When the disease of polycystic kidney disease develops into renal insufficiency or uremia, patients should also not eat the beans and bean products. At the same time, these patients should restrain the intake of food containing too much animal high protein and too much fat.

Specifically, the patients should restrain or stop the intake of the following kinds of food:

1, animals' viscera: even the cooked animal viscera are not suitable for patients of this disease, especially the animal livers. During the animal slaughter process, a large amount toxin had been left in the animals' livers and kidneys, especially the livers. If those animal viscera are taken in by patients, they undoubtedly will increase the burden of kidney and aggravate the patients' condition.

2, fermented food: the fermented food we said here mainly means the bacterium class fermented food, including fermented bean curd, rotten eggs and etc. This kind of food may accelerate the growth of cysts.

3, the food containing high protein: no matter with which type of kidney disease, the patients should adopt diets containing less protein to avoid the combining of nitrogen class metabolites in human body and to reduce the excretion of kidney. This kind of food includes soybean, bean curd and other bean products.

4, liquor and alcohol: liquor, especially the white spirit, is very dangerous for patients of this disease, because liquor can stimulate the activity of cysts protein, which will accelerate the growth of cysts.

5, stop chocolate and coffee.

Maybe these taboos are suffering for you. Don’t worry, because there is various food you can take in, including: 1, fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin; 2, fruits and vegetables containing much iron, such as carrot; 3, vegetable food which can resolve the kidney stones, such as black fungus; 4, the food which has the function of dieresis and etc; 5, take in more basicity food, which have the function of adjuvant treatment.


Diet is an important part of our daily life. If we have a reasonable dietary habit, we will lead a better life in spite of the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease. If you need more information, please contact us by email: kidney-treatment@hotmail.com or consult the experts online.

Main Manifestations of the Disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease

During the early stage, the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease usually has no obvious symptoms. With the enlargement of the cysts, there will be series of symptoms. This disease usually attacks after 30 years.The main manifestations of the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease including the following aspects:
First, the manifestation of urinary system: 1, swollen pain, dull pain or renal colic of the back or midsection; 2, hematuria; 3, upper urinary tract infections; 4, complicated kidney stones.

Second, manifestations of cardiovascular system: such as hypertension, sometimes the hypertension is one of the first symptoms. In addition, this disease may complicated by ventricular hypertrophy, mitral valve prolapsed and aortic insufficiency. And intracranial aneurysm is one of the common complications of this disease.

Third, the manifestations of digestive system: Sometimes, the patients have the manifestations of headache, nausea or vomit, weakness, weight loss and chronic renal insufficiency and do on.

Four, other manifestations: 30 percent of patients of this disease are accompanied with polycystic liver disease; 10 percent of patients have pancreatic cysts, and 5 percent of have the disease of spleen cysts.


Therefore, in the daily life, patients should pay attention to these manifestations in order to adopt treatment early.

Why Polycystic Kidney Disease Can Develop into Renal Failure

As we all know, the main reason of Polycystic Kidney Disease aggravation is cysts growing and increasing. Based on this, the main cause of this disease developing into Renal Failure is also the cysts growing and increasing. When cysts are still small in the early stage, they do not produce big pressure on surrounding kidney tissue and do not cause kidney injury. So patients can live a normal life this period.

With cysts growing and increasing, their pressure on surrounding kidney tissue also increases and then this will lead to kidney injury gradually. Once kidney injury starts, it won’t stop if no effective treatment is taken. Many foreign patients told us that their doctor told them there is no effective treatment for this disease and they had to wait for Dialysis or Kidney Transplant, which is one of main causes that the disease developing into Renal Failure. If patients can accept effective treatment in time, the development of Polycystic Kidney Disease can be delayed or even stopped and it will not develop into Renal Failure.


When kidney injury aggravate into a certain degree, kidney function will begin to decline and creatinine, BUN and other physical items will also begin to increase. Gradually, symptoms of Renal Failure appear and patients begin to pay more attention on their disease. Even some of them need Dialysis to maintain their normal life.

What Factors Can Cause Waist Pain for PKD Patients

As for Polycystic Kidney Disease patients, very few symptoms can be found in the early stage when the cysts are still small. Many sensitive patients may feel waist pain in this stage and this painful feeling becomes more and more serious with cysts growing and illness condition aggravating.

Generally, waist pain for Polycystic Kidney Disease can be caused by the following reasons:

Kidney capsule or blood vessel nervous of renal pedicle is pulled by cysts or kidney enlargement or acute hemorrhea inside cysts.

PKD patients are easily complicated by stones or bleeding which may produce blood clot, causing ureter obstruction. Then patients may have the feeling of renal colic.

Physical activity and long-term walking or sitting can also cause waist pain.
Due to urine washing, stones may be moved, which can lead to pain on kidney region.

When there is an urinary tract infection complicated with cysts, PKD patients can feel painful on kidney region.

Waist pain can be felt if there is perinephric hematoma or abscess caused by sharp enlargement of cysts.

Enlarged kidney can draw-off renal pedicle due to tenesmus, which can lead to dull pain on waist or abdomen.


The above are several causes of waist pain for Polycystic Kidney Disease patients. If you still have other questions about this, you can email to kidney-treatment@hotmail.com or consult our doctors online for free.

Is Kidney Transplant the Only Way for PKD patients

Most patients told us that they would accept Kidney Transplant as doctor’s advice when they consult us online or email to us. The most frequent questions they always ask are that is kidney transplant the only way or can I have another choice.

Well, is Kidney Transplant unavoidable for Polycystic Kidney Disease patients? To be honest, I have to admit that Kidney Transplant is considered as one of the best way to solve kidney problem and the effect is great with high operation success rate. However, we usually do not suggest Kidney Transplant to patients because we know the high risk of this operation companied with great effect. According to data statistic, the surviving rate is only 1% in ten years after this operation and patients have to take medicine during their life long time in order to fight against rejection. Another more important reason why we do not suggest this operation is that we are sure that Kidney Transplant can be avoided if effective treatment can be taken before kidneys are damaged totally.

We all know that kidney disease has a long developing process. So kidney damage is also not formed in one or two days. If we can try our best to stop or delay the development of kidney damage, the disease may not develop into end stage and patients can avoid Kidney Transplant. Here, most patients will ask how to delay or even stop kidney damage. In our hospital, we adopted Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy and Immunotherapy to deal with this problem. Some Chinese herbs have distinctive effect on repairing and protecting kidney. Besides, Chinese medicines can also eliminating toxins and removing stasis in body, which can create a much better body environment and improve body healthy. And Immunotherapy can create new nephrons which can take place of these dead nephrons to play their function. In this way, kidney can be protected and repaired effectively and kidney function will recover gradually. As a result, PKD patients can avoid Kidney Transplant.

Based on the above reasons, we seldom suggest patients accept Kidney Transplant for Polycystic Kidney Disease patient. If you need more information about the treatment, you can email to kidney-treatment@hotmail.com or consult our doctors online for free.

Typical symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease

Polycystic Kidney Disease is a type of congenital kidney disorder. And during the early stage of this disease, there are usually no obvious symptoms. With the enlargement of the cysts, the cysts will gradually press the normal renal tissues and damage the renal function, and then there will be a series symptoms caused by the cysts. The typical symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease including the following aspects:

1, backache or abdominal pain: this symptom is usually the first symptom for many patients with this disease. This symptom may be sustained or be paroxysmal, and it will be aggravated after overworking.

2, hematuria: this symptom is also one of the first symptoms. Hematuria can be divided into gross hematuria and microscopic hematuria. There are about 50 percent of patients with this disease have the symptom of painless gross hematuria.

3, abdominal mass: these masses are usually in the upper abdomen and the sizes of them are different.

4, hypertension: hypertension is one of the most common symptoms of this disease. This symptom may appear before the damage of the renal function or after the damage of the renal function. What’s more, the hypertension may in turn aggravate the patient’s condition.

5, renal insufficiency: with the enlargement of the cysts and the development of this disease, there will be the symptom of renal insufficiency. The renal function is obviously abnormal and the urine specific gravity is stable but low.

6, frequent micturition and urgent urination: there are about 25 percent of patients of this disease have the symptoms of frequent micturition, urgent urination and other discomfort of urinary tract.


All of these symptoms of the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease should be paid attention to. And because the appearance of the symptoms usually is late than the pathology damage, once the patients have these symptoms, they should determine the accurate causes and adopt treatment in time.

Tonify the Kidney by Chinese Herbal Medicine

Are you interested in Chinese herbal kidney medicine? Do you know the Chinese herbs that can be used to help recover from kidney deficiency?

The kidney is a very important organ under the umbrella of Chinese medical studies. Indeed the Chinese consider the kidney to be the key of life itself. The kidney has a number of important functions such as the urinary function, reproductive function, keeping the bones strong and regulating water metabolism. Chinese herbs can be used to promote kidney health.

Men suffering from kidney deficiency patterns can suffer from sexual dysfunction, systematic exhaustion and urinary disturbances. Some of the other symptoms include weakness in the lower body, lower back pain and diminished hearing.
Chinese herbs are used to tonify the kidney and provide it with strength. Restoring a kidney to its normal healthy state takes a certain amount of time even with the use of Chinese herbs. Some of the Chinese herbal tonics used to promote good kidney health are:

Ho Shou Wu：This is one of the all time classic longevity herbs prescribed by Chinese medicine. It gives a boost of energy and has a powerful reproductive function. While providing the kidney with its required strength it can also help recover from grey hair, reduces high cholesterol, blood pressure as well as arterial sclerosis. Anyone using this herb is requested to refrain from garlic, chives or onions because as it is Ho Shou Wu is a difficult herb to digest.

Cistanche：Cistanche is a unique Chinese herb that is used to promote good kidney health. The unique thing about this Chinese herb is that it can help tonify the kidney without drying up the body. A Chinese herbal formula made using this herb is Broomrape which is commonly known as Materia Medica. Amongst the various benefits that it has is the fact that it can help resolve urinary problems such as incontinence or post-urinary dripping along with lower back pains. These are all conditions that develop as a result of kidney deficiency. Care must be taken when using this herb because it must not come in contact with iron.

Yin Yang Huo：This herb is commonly known as Horny Goatweed and helps to improve a number of health conditions. It can help to increase sexual activity, lower the blood pressure and stimulate the sensory nerve. Furthermore it has been found to be beneficial against urinary deficiencies which manifest themselves due to weaknesses in the kidney.

Ginseng：The popular Chinese herb Ginseng has overall health benefits for the body. It is an adaptogenic herb that men should start making use of once they hit the thirty five year mark. The continual use of this herb stimulates blood circulation, increases stamina and helps to manage stress. While this herb adds strength to the body it limits the amount of heat that is present in the kidney thereby helping to restore the kidney’s health.


Dan Shen：The primary use of Dan Shen is to invigorate blood. There are however other health benefits that can be derived from this powerful herb such as its ability to treat insomnia and irritability. It can help a man to cope with the stress related with kidney deficiency which arises due to urinary problems and sexual dysfunction.

What Kind of Fruit is Fit for the Patients with PKD

Most fruits have the function of health care. While, as for the patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease, all fruits are not fit for them. If patients eat some fruit selectively, it is good for their health. Otherwise, it is harmful for the patients.

Then what kind of fruits is fit for the patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease?　　For most patients with this disease, apples are fit for them and they can eat proper amount of apples in daily life. If the patients are accompanied with diabetes, they can eat some fruits which have the hypoglycemic effects, such as apples, pineapples and grapes.

As for the patients accompanied with gastric ulcer, they eat some apples. However, they should avoid lemon, plum and other acid fruits.

If the patients of Polycystic Kidney Disease have the symptom of edema, proper apples are fit for them. However, patients had better eat less fruits which contain much water, such as watermelon, pears and pineapples.

If the patients of this disease have the symptom of anemia, orange and persimmon are not fit for them, because these fruit will impede the adsorption of iron in other food.

If the patients with this disease are taking dialysis, what kind of fruits is fit for them? Usually, there are not many constraints for them. While, if the patients have symptom of potassium deficiency, they should take in more fruit which is rich in potassium, such as citrus and oranges.

In addition, if the patients’ condition is serious and the renal function is not very good, they may have the symptoms of hyperkalemia. At this time, patients should eat less fruit contains much potassium.

Why the Cysts often Recur after Surgeries

With the enlargement of the cysts, many patients with the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) adopt surgeries to deal with the cysts. While, most patients found that soon they have the same symptoms again and the cysts recurred. The repeated recurring of the cysts will bring great suffering to the patients and make the illness condition worse. Why the cysts recur after the surgeries?

The traditional western medicine treatment methods for this disease include paracentesis, laparoscopic renal cyst decorbicatiou (LRCD) and pumping fluid hardening operation. Although these treatment methods are aiming at the cysts, they just eliminate the larger cysts temporarily. However, after the elimination of the larger cysts, the surrounding small cysts will grow rapidly due to the decrease of pressure and the increase of space. Therefore, the cysts will soon recur after the surgeries and the patients have to be faced with the same problems and suffer more form this disease.

This is because the surgeries don’t proceed form the real cause of the cysts. As we all know that the most basic unit of our human body is cell. As for the enlargement of cysts, the abnormal hyperplasia of kidney tubules epithelial cells is its outstanding feature. When the kidney tubules epithelial cells turn into cysts epithelial cells, they begin to have the function of secretion. The liquid they secreted become more and more but there is no normal approach to eliminate. So with the increase of age and the accumulation of liquid, the cysts will gradually enlarge and the cysts pressure will increase, then the cysts will press the surrounding renal tissues and the tension of cysts wall will increase.

If we want to prevent form the recurring of the cysts, we must proceed from the abnormal abnormal hyperplasia of kidney tubules epithelial cells. On the basis of this theory, we developed out Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, This type of therapy possesses two curative effects, the first one is: expand the vessels on the vascular wall surround the polycystic kidney disease, accelerate the blood circulation of cyst wall, promote the permeability of cyst wall, promote the inner press decrease of cyst wall vessels, reverse the differential pressure caused by intravascular pressure higher than cysts pressure, accelerate the vessels adsorption of the cyst liquid. The second one is: the active substance of Micro-Chinese Medicine can restrain the secretion of cyst wall epithelial cell; prevent the continue expanding of bursa wall vessels and cyst.


By this, the fundamental source of the cysts will be controlled and the inner environment of human body is improved. So the cysts usually won’t recur.

The Increase of Serum Creatinine

The examination of serum creatinine is a main method to check the renal function. When the serum creatinine increases, it will threaten the health of the patients. So why does the serum creatinine increase.

Creatinine is a type of toxin which is secreted by muscle. Usually, creatinine is extracted with the urine, if the creatinine is retented in the human body for a long time, it will lead to the increase of serum creatinine.

According to the resource of creatinine, it can be divided into exogenous and endogenous. The former is the product of meat food metabolized in the body. And the later is the metabolism product of our muscle.


However, the endogeny creatinine is the metabolism products of the muscle. In the muscle of human body, creatine generate the creatinine slowly trough the irreversible non-enzyme dehydration,and then the creatinine is released into the blood and excreted out of the human body with the urine. Therefore, the serum creatinine is closely related to the amount of mules of human body. In most cases, it won’t affected by the diets, high catabolism and other renal outside factors. When the exogenous creatinine is stable, the stable amount of endogenous creatinine is about 20mg/kg per day. The degree of serum creatinine is mainly decided by the glomerulus filtration rate. But the serum creatinine is different from the creatinine clearance rate. The creatinine clearance rate is more sensitive than the serum creatinine. During the early stage of the decline of the renal function (compensatory stage), the creatinine clearance rate decrease, but the serum creatinine is normal. When the glomerulus filtration rate decreases by more than 50 percent, the serum creatinine will increase rapidly. Therefore, the obvious increase of serum creatinine means that the renal function has been seriously damaged. Since the creatinine clearance rate will affected by the glomerulus concentrate function, when the renal concentration function is damaged, the serum creatinine is the most reliable index to reflect the glomerulus function. The normal serum creatinine value of male is 53-106gmol/L, and female is 44.2-97.2gmol/L.

The Limits of Kidney Transplant

With the development of the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), kidney transplant is a common adopted method to save the life of patients when their renal function is seriously damaged. While, is the kidney transplant an ideal method for patients? Is there any limit of it?

At present, kidney transplant is a common used treatment method for the uremia. It is a modern high-technology method, which transplant a healthy kidney into the patient’s body to replace the damaged kidney to maintain the normal metabolism of the human body. However, during the operation of kidney transplant and after the operation, patients are faced a lot of problems, including the following aspects:

1, it is hard to find out a matched kidney in a short time and the cost of the operation is relatively high, which is beyond the ability of many patients.

2, there may be various complications after the operation, such as infections, cardiovascular complications, digestive system complications, disorder of endocrine, and metabolism, the complications of blood system, tumours, relapse of the kidney disease, etc.

3, the long-term survival rate is low. After the kidney transplant operation, the survival rate of one year is 90%, while the survival rate of five years is 5% and the survival rate of ten years is only 1%.

4, besides, the kidney transplant operation is not fit for many patients. For example, patients are accompanied with the following disease should not adopt kidney transplant: schizophrenia, metastatic tumors, chronic active hepatitis, disseminated tuberculosis, stubborn heart failure, blood coagulation mechanism deficit disorder, polyarteritis nodosa, coccidioidomycosis, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and primary oxalic acid salt urine disease.


5, after the operation, it is hard to avoid the rejection. This is because that there is still alloantigen in the transplanted kidney. At present, as for the various rejections, patients have to take many medicines to control them, and at most cases, the medicine-taking lasts the whole life.

Rejections after Kidney Transplant

When the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) develops to the renal failure stage or uremia, patients have to adopt the operation of kidney transplant. However, kidney transplant is not omnipotent, after the opertation, patients are faced with a series of rejections and have to take medicines all the life. The common rejections include the following aspects:

① , hyperacute rejection: this rejection usually appears within the 48 hours after the blood vessels connection between the transplanted kidney and receptor. Maybe this appears in several minutes. At present, there is no effective method for this and once this rejection appears, we have to remove the transplanted kidney and take the operation again.

② , acceleration rejection, this usually appear within 3-5 days after the operation and the common manifestations are obvious swollen kidney, tenderness, fever, oliguresis, hypertension, the increase of serum creatinine and white blood cells.

③ , acute rejection: this rejection usually appears one week after the operation and this may exist with the chronic rejection at the same time. The main manifestations include fever, the decrease of urine, tenderness of transplanted kidney increase of serum creatinine. At present, with the application of cyclosporine A, these manifestations are not so obvious and there may be only the change of renal function.

④ , chronic rejection: this usually appears six months after the operation. At the earliest, it may appear three months after the operations. The main manifestations are the gradual decline of renal function, proteinuria, hematuria and hypertension.

At present, as for the various rejections, patients have to take many medicines to control them, and at most cases, the medicine-taking lasts the whole life. The best choice for the patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease is to delay the progression of this disease and prevent from it aggravating to the renal failure stage. At present, we have developed out Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, which have achieved very good effects clinically. The clinical practices have proven that the earlier this disease is treated, the better the effects are.
What’s more, this therapy treat the disease by external application, by which patients can treat their disease without suffering the pain of operations.

Clinical symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease

Clinically, most of Polycystic Kidney Disease patients have family history and it happens more to male than female. Generally Polycystic Kidney Disease has no symptoms in the early stage and the symptoms often appear when patients are 30 to 40 years. Some common symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease can be listed as followed:

Ⅰ.The enlargement of the kidney. With cysts growing and increasing, besides producing pressure on surrounding kidney tissue, they will also cause kidney enlargement.

Ⅱ.Discomforts in waist and abdomen. The increase of renal capsular tension or the pull of renal pedicle vessels and nerves can lead to dull pain. If there is bleeding in the cyst and the blood clot block the urethra or there is infection in the cyst, the pain will be acute suddenly and even cause renal colic.

Ⅲ. Hematuria: If the vessels are broken due to the pull, there will be gross hematuria.

Ⅳ. Proteinuria and leucocyturia: Urine protein is generally lower than 1g/24hours. Leucocyturia is commonly seen, which doesn’t suggest infection.

Ⅴ. Hypertension: It is commonly seen and will directly influence the prognosis of the disease. It is related to the pressing of the cyst on normal renal tissues and causes renal ischemia and water and sodium retention.

Ⅵ. Damage to renal function: The loss of renal function is related to the pressing of the cyst and is also relevant to other tissues that have ischemia, sclerosis, inflammation, fibrosis and the high filtration and high perfusion of the remaining renal tissues.

Hypertension and Polycystic Kidney Disease

Many Polycystic Kidney Disease patients have hypertension at the same time. But why patients have hypertension, though this is very common among Polycystic Kidney Disease patients. Actually, hypertension caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease, which is a kind of secondary hypertension, is more harmful to our body. We should learn more about it.

The reason why Polycystic Kidney Disease patients have hypertension can be described as followed: cyst enlargement can produce pressure on normal kidney tissue and blood vessels in kidney. This can cause ischemia to kidney tissue and blood vessel, resulting in blood flow decrease in local part. Once receptor of kidney feels this change, it will give a sign of secreting more rennin, which can increase the concentration of angiotensin and cause vasoconstriction, thus blood pressure increasing. It is a vicious circle between hypertension and kidney damage. For this reason, Polycystic Kidney Disease patients should pay high attention on hypertension and try to control blood pressure in normal range.


The occurrence of hypertension is a sign of disease aggravation. More than 50% patients will get hypertension before serum creatinine increasing. Once hypertension occurs, arterial vessels will shrink which may induce injury to the wall of blood vessel. Under such condition, cholesterol and other materials can deposit on blood vessel wall easily, thus thickening and hardening blood vessel wall. Besides, this may also involve to renal artery and glomerulus, resulting in kidney ischemia, glomerular atrophy and small artery fibrosis. With this happening, this disease may develop into end stage renal failure gradually.

Five Stages of Polycystic Kidney Disease

It is well known that Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a type of genetic kidney disease and it has the characteristic of familial aggregation. According to the clinical experiments, there are some regulars for its attack and development, which can be divided into five stages according to the illness condition.

First, emergence stage: Polycystic Kidney Disease is a type of genetic disease, which means that the patients are accompanied with this disease at the beginning of their life. But during this stage the cysts are relatively small and they are not easy to be examined. Before 20 years, this disease usually won’t attack. However, for people whose family has PKD medical cases, they should make early examination and observe the growth condition of the cysts. During this stage the patient should pay attention to maintainance.

Second, growth stage: during the ages of 30-40, cysts will grow in a relatively high speed. Medically, we call this stage as the growth stage. During this stage, patients should intensify examination of the development of the cysts. Western medicine usually adopts no method for this stage’ treatment, it considers there is no need to treat and just aims at the symptoms, such as hypertension and etc, which seems rather passive. However, in Chinese medicine, we think we should adopt positive treatment, the aim of treatment is stopping the growth of cysts or restraining their growth speed by Chinese medicine with strong ability of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and we can further achieve the goal of extending patients’ longevity. So this stage is considered as a key stage for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and restraining cysts growth by Chinese medicine.

Third, enlargement stage: for patients after 40 years, cysts will get a further growth. When cysts are larger than 4cm and before diabrosis, it is called enlargement stage. With the enlargement of cysts, there will be many symptoms, such as backache, proteinuria, hematuria, increase of blood pressure and so on. During this period, the patients should pay close attention to examination. On treatment, this stage is the key stage for combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine. The patients can adopt Chinese medicine to achieve the goals of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and expelling toxin and discharging turbidity. And by eliminating the harmful cysts fluid the patients can achieve the goals of protecting renal function. Therefore, this stage is called the key treatment stage for combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

Fourth, diabrosis stage: if cysts continuously grow, under the influence of some external forces, they will burst. After diabrosis, the patients should take a timely treatment, control the infection positively and avoid ichorrhemia and acute deterioration of renal function, in order to benefit the treatments for other symptoms.


Fifth, renal failure stage: for the treatments of uremia stage, the patients should pay attention to protecting renal function, peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis are suitable for the end stage.

Is Kidney Transplant the Only Choice for PKD Patients?

Presently, Kidney Transplant is considered as the best method for Polycystic Kidney Disease patients to deal with their disease due to its high success rate and good effect. In most countries, this is really a good choice because there are few treatments to treat this disease in the early stage and patients also do not accept treatments until they have serious symptoms or kidney function decline. Here, the treatments for them usually refer to Dialysis or Kidney Transplant.

Kidney Transplant is an effective treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease, having high success operation rate. It is considered to have the most radical effect on treating this disease. Why most patients do not want to accept this operation though there are such advantages of kidney transplant. As we all know, though there is high success rate and good effect, there is also high risk. Besides rare match, the transplant reaction is also the very thing that most patients worry about. After transplant, patients still need take medicine to fight against the rejection. In addition, according to statistic, the surviving rate for patients who accept Kidney Transplant is only 1% in 10 years after this operation. So it can be easily found the reason why many patients want to avoid this operation.


However, is there a treatment that can take the place of kidney Transplant? Or is there a treatment that can help Polycystic Kidney Disease patients avoid Dialysis in the future? We all know that the process of Polycystic Kidney Disease is a long and slow period. If we can control and stop the process of this disease in the early stage, the disease may not develop further into end stage renal failure. But can it be controlled or stopped in the early stage? Yes, the answer is yes. As for Polycystic Kidney Disease patients, the main reason of causing kidney function decline is cysts enlargement. So the key of controlling and stopping the process of this disease is to control and shrink cysts. Based on this, a new treatment, Micro-Chinese Medicine is developed out to deal with cysts, which has shown its great vitality in this field by years of clinical practices. Besides, this treatment does not need any surgical operation and it is safe enough with no side effect. If cysts can be controlled in the early stage, patients have great possibility of avoiding Dialysis and Transplant in the future.

Immunotherapy Research on Polycystic Kidney Disease

Immunotherapy is a newly developed technology in medicine field and it has been applied in kidney disease treatment in recent years. Through many years research, Immunotherapy have shown its great effect on treating kidney disease, including Polycystic Kidney Disease.

Polycystic Kidney Disease is a kind of hereditary disease with multi cysts growing in bilateral kidneys. These cysts grow with age and they can produce pressure on surrounding kidney tissue, causing kidney injury. With injury aggravation, patients begin to get a series of symptoms, which means kidney function has already declined.

Based on this, Immunotherapy are used to deal with such kind of kidney injury. Immunotherapy have the ability of self-renewing, which means they can regenerate massive offspring that may have exactly the same characteristics as these original cells. In addition, Immunotherapy also have the potential of differentiating into functional cells of various tissues. For this reason, Immunotherapy can repair kidney greatly and play function in these damaged nephrons effectively by regenerating injured nephrons and differentiating new nephrons. By this, normal kidney structure can be repaired and kidney function will be improved gradually.


Presently, Immunotherapy is combined with Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy which is also a kind of effective treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease. Through the combination of these two treatments, a much better therapeutic effect can be got, which improves patients living quality greatly. If you want more information about Immunotherapy or the combination of Immunotherapy and Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, you can email to kidney-treatment@hotmail.com or consult us online.

Proteinuria Caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease

Many patients with the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease have the symptom of proteinuria. Then how does the proteinuria generate?

The generation of proteinuria is caused by the increase of glomerulus filtration membrane permeability after the glomerulus filtration membrane having been damaged. When there are various pathology damages, they will lead to the local microcirculation dysfunction of the damaged renal, which will cause the ischemia and anemia of the kidney. And then the ischemia and anemia of kidney will damage the blood capillary endothelial cells and fatherly damage the renal blood capillary. This will attract the inflammatory cells in the blood circulation system, which will release the inflammatory media that can cause disease and start the renal fibrosis. The inflammatory action of damaged kidney will lead to the enlargement, shutting or breakage of the glomerulus basement membrane filtration pores. Besides, this will damage the charge barrier of the glomerulus filtration membrane and lead to the increase of renal permeability. Then there will be proteinuria in clinical.

As for the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease, the damage of glomerulus is mainly caused by the compression of the cysts, which means that: to treat proteinuria, we must proceed from the treatment of the cysts. In clinical, Micro-Chinese Medicine has achieved good effects on treating the cyst. This is because this type of therapy possesses two curative effects, the first one is: expand the vessels on the vascular wall surround the polycystic kidney disease, accelerate the blood circulation of cyst wall, promote the permeability of cyst wall, promote the inner press decrease of cyst wall vessels, reverse the differential pressure caused by intravascular pressure higher than intracapsular pressure, accelerate the vessels resorption of the cyst liquid. The second one is: the active substance of Micro-Chinese Medicine can restrain the secretion of cyst wall epithelial cell; prevent the continue expanding of bursa wall vessels and cyst.


By this, we can treat the proteinuria fundamentally. If you have other questions about Polycystic Kidney Disease and the treatment, please contact us by email: kidney-treatment@hotmail.com or consult online directly.

Exercise of Patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease

Proper exercise makes our bodies fit and strong, while the exercise of patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease should be different, they must pay more attention to the details.

Usually, the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease does not have obvious symptoms before 30 years old and it won’t affect the life of the patients. At this time, though the mutual compression of the cysts has existed for some patients, the pressure is not very high. So patients can still do some exercise with high safety, while patients with this disease should not do the exercise with crash, such as playing basketball and football. In daily life, patients can do some flexible exercise which won't affect the kidney.

As for the patients over 40 years, the pressure of the cysts became higher. Drastic exercise will cause the burst of the cysts. Therefore, those patients should be careful when they do exercise and avoid crash.

As for the patients who have the symptom of hematuria, they should pay much attention to avoid the rupture of the cysts and prevent the aggravation of hematuria. Commonly, they can do some exercise with less jolt, such as jogging and going for a walk in the morning.


In addition, having the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease does not mean patients can’t do exercise. No exercise is not good for the blood circulation of patients and it will decline the immunity of the patients. Therefore, patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease should do proper exercise in their daily life, such as jogging, taking a walk and flexible morning exercise.

Milk and Polycystic Kidney Disease

Most patients with the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) know that they should adopt reasonable diets to delay or control the progression of the disease. Except the main principles we commonly mentioned, there are some details that patients should pay attention to.

Some patients with this disease wonder whether they can drink milk. As we all know, milk contains abundant nutrition constituents, as well various kinds of mineral substance. Except the calcium we commonly said, milk also contains much phosphorus, iron, zinc, copper, manganese and molybdenum. Usually, the main contains of the common milk are as following: water, 87.5%; fat, 3.5%; protein, 3.4%; lactose, 4.6%; inorganic salt, 0.7%. Besides, milk is relatively is easy to be digested and absorbed.

Therefore, patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease can take in milk properly. Milk is good for the health of the patients. On one hand, milk can provide necessary nutrition for the body. At the same time, milk can maintain the balance of the trace elements in the body.


If you have other questions, please contact us by email: kidney-treatment@hotmail.com or consult online directly.

Can Patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease Have Sexual Life

Many patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) think they should not have sexual life. In fact, if the illness condition is under control, proper sexual life is permissible.

As the treatment of Polycystic Kidney Disease is a long process, proper sexual life can relieve the pressure of the patients, contributing to the treatment. While, there are several principles that patients should abide by.

First, patient should make sure that their illness conditions are under control firstly. Then on this basis, they can have proper sexual life. For sexual life will consume much energy, too much sexual life may lead to over fatigue and increase the burden of the kidney.

Second, pay attention to health of the private part. No matter before or after the sexual life, patients should make sure the private parts are clean. Especially for women patients, they are easier to be attacked by infections, which will aggravate the condition of polycystic kidney disease.

Third, take effective measures of contraception. Before you make sure that you want to have a baby, please take effective measures for the contraception. As this polycystic kidney disease is a type of genetic disease, you should consider well whether you want your baby to inherit the cysts gene. Then, we must take care of the women patient, for most cases, pregnancy may induce the attack of this disease or aggravate the condition of the disease.


Hope the above suggestions can help you. If you need more information about Polycystic Kidney Disease, please contact us by email: kidney-treatment@hotmail.com or consult online directly.

How to Slow the Process of Polycystic Kidney Disease

As a hereditary disease, patients were born with Polycystic Kidney Disease and most of these patients will have a worsening body condition with the disease aggravation. The process of Polycystic Kidney Disease is a slow but long period before it develops into end stage renal failure. So is there a way that can slow this process?

Cysts are not enlarged in one or two day, so if we can try to control the cysts in a certain degree before they grow larger. Once cysts can be controlled, the process of this disease can be controlled or slowed effectively, but how to control these cysts in the early stage? I think most patients would like to ask this question.

Besides rational diet and proper daily care, effective treatment is still the key of delaying the process of this treatment. In Chinese medicine opinion, we believe that surgical operation is another kind of trauma to kidneys, which is the main reason why we do not suggest operation to patients. I think most of Polycystic Kidney Disease patients must have the same feeling because their body condition does not turn better except in the short period after the treatment. They may feel discomfort again not long after the operation. For this reason, most of the patients would like to find a treatment that can slow the process of this disease.


In our hospital, Chinese medicine treatment is commonly suggested because there is no surgical operation during the process. What’s more, some Chinese herbs are really effective on protecting and tonifying kidneys. These medicines have special functions of shrinking cysts and controlling cysts by inhibiting the secretion of cysts fluid and increasing the adsorption of cysts fluids. In this way, cysts can be under control and the process of this disease can be slowed gradually.
