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.
