Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy in Treating PKD

Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine opinion of treating internal disease by external medicine application, our hospital has developed Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy which has a good effect on treating Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). Compared with Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine Treatment, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has its own advantasges of treating Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD).

Micronized Chinese Medicine has a strong activity, and it can treat renal lesion directly. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can relieve obstruction condition of blood vessel wall and cyst circulation and soften cyst wall as well as increase permeability of cyst wall and inhibit cells on cyst wall secreting cyst fluid. Generally, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can treat PKD through the following four methods.

Firstly, Micro-Chinese Medicine can reduce cyst internal fluid secretion as well as pressure on glomerulus, renal tubule and kidney blood vessel. This can improve blood circulation of injured renal tissue and relieve the condition of renal ischemia, providing a beneficial environment for injured renal tissue recovery.

Secondly, active substances of micronized Chinese Medicine can prevent renal function declining by blocking Renal Fibrosis caused by cystic pressure. With congenital cysts growing, the pressure on surrounding kidney caused by them also increases, which can lead to renal ischemia and anoxia, starting the process of Renal Fibrosis. Once Renal Fibrosis starts, kidney structure can be damaged and renal function can be lost. The key of Micro-Chinese Medicine treating PKD is to block the process of Renal Failure and relieve renal anoxia in order to protect remained renal function.

Thirdly, active substances of Micro-Chinese Medicine can supply required substances for injured kidney. These helpful substances includes various vitamins, trace elements, organic acids as well as amino acids and so on, all of which can improve injured kidney recovery.

Fourthly, active substances of Micro-Chinese Medicine enter into injured renal tissue, activating DNA of injured cells and accelerating synthesis of DNA. Through this way, this treatment can perfect recovering and rebuilding mechanism of injured renal tissue, which can improve the condition of injured kidney and recover declined renal function.


Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy lays a good foundation for clinical practice to treat PKD and recover renal function effectively. It has been proved that this treatment has an excellent effect on treating PKD.

When Can Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease Be Diagnosed

When can Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease be diagnosed mainly depends on diagnosis methods and different equipments. Generally, most patients are diagnosed as Polycystic Kidney Disease when they have already had clinical symptoms. Only a few patients know this diagnosis through normal body check. If there is Polycystic Kidney Disease among family members, doctors normally suggest other family members who have blood relationship with patient receive body check.
Presently, Type-B Ultrasonic examination is generally used to check Polycystic Kidney Disease, with diagnosis rate of 99%. From the view point of prepotency, especially for patients who are about to have a baby, an early diagnosis of fetus illness condition is desired.


As for patients who are pregnant, they should accept cystic gene tests of amniotic fluid or villous cells. Because Polycystic Kidney Disease follows the regulation of 50% hereditary rate, molecular genetics examination can help PKD family choose a healthy baby. And the baby will not carry genetic gene any more. So in some degree, this disease can be prevented successfully.

How Long Can Polycystic Kidney Disease Patients Live

As a hereditary disease, Polycystic Kidney Disease usually occurs among middle aged person. If timely and effective treatment can not be taken to treat this disease, PKD is easy to relapse. Most patients have lost the confidence of overcoming this disease, and they always ask the question that how long they can live for. Specialists on PKD point out that PKD patient should face the disease bravely and accept treatment actively. Treating PKD in early stage has a significant role in patients’ future life. It has been proved that if patients can be found and treated this disease early, they can prolong their life maximally.

How long PKD patients live mostly depends on the characteristics of this disease.
Firstly, patients who suffer from Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease were born with PKD. But many patients can have no clinical symptoms and this disease doesn’t occur. These patients do not need special treatment.

Secondly, generally, clinical symptoms appear after patients get 30 years old. The earlier this disease occurs, the more serious clinical symptoms are. Patients who suffer from later clinical symptoms can have less serious clinical symptoms. Besides, male illness condition can be worse than female.

Thirdly, about 30% PKD patients have Polycystic Liver Disease at the same time, but with normal liver function and no other symptoms. Besides, spleen, pancreas, lung and ovary can also be found cysts. 2% patients may have intracranial vessel malformation and aneurysm, which is easy to cause intracranial hemorrhage.

Fourthly, normally, it may be about 10 years from symptoms appearing to Renal Failure. But there is huge difference between individuals.

How long PKD patients live also depends on the treatment patients choose.

As for treating Polycystic Kidney Disease, the key is to remove pressure on kidneys and protect renal function. Traditional operation has large trauma. Besides, with large cysts being removed, small cysts grow rapidly without the pressure from large cysts, which forms a vicious circle. Micro-Chinese Medicine can act on cyst wall, increasing cyst fluid reabsorption and decrease cyst fluid secretion through improving blood circulation of cyst wall. By this method, cysts shrink gradually and pressure on kidneys is removed, which can prolong patients’ life greatly. If patients can inhibit cysts growth effective and prevent this disease developing into Renal Failure and Uremia, patients can have a longer life and live healthily as others.

Mechanism of Micro-Chinese Medicine Treating Polycystic Kidney Disease

After many years of clinical practices and scientific research, Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital has developed Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease. This treatment has improved the therapeutic effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine by using micronized Chinese Medicine.

Generally speaking, Micro-Chinese Medicine can block Renal Fibrosis and control cysts growing of PKD from the following methods:

Firstly, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can block Renal Fibrosis and inhibit Extracellular Matrix (ECM) synthesis. When cysts of PKD grow bigger, they compress not only functional nephron but also renal artery at all levels. Once renal blood vessel is compressed, renal ischemia and anoxia appear which can aggravate injury of endothelial cells of renal capillary. These injured cells can attract blood inflammatory cells filtration, secreting a series of nephrotoxic cellular factors. This can speed up mechanocyte in renal interstitium turning into myofibroblast, secreting ECM which is difficult to de degraded, which can start the process of Renal Fibrosis. And the mechanism of micronized Chinese Medicine is to block Renal Fibrosis of PKD.

Secondly, active substances of Chinese Medicine have the function of inhibiting proliferation of cyst epithelial cells and reducing cyst fluid secretion. Growing cysts compress nephron progressively, speed up Renal Fibrosis further. During this process, renal fibrous and cystic factors are secreted continuously. Among nephrotoxic growth factors, epidermal growth factor (EGF), transforming growth factorβ(TGF-β) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) can stimulate proliferation of epithelial cells of cyst wall and increase cyst fluid secretion.


After entering into kidney lesions, micronized Chinese Medicine can inhibit proliferation of epithelial cells of cyst wall and reduce cyst fluid secretion. Active substances of Chinese Medicine can get into cells of cyst internal wall directly, inhibit and prevent the combination of nephrotoxic growth factors and related acceptor which can activate tyrosine kinase. By this way, this treatment blocks the proliferation of epithelial cells of internal cyst wall caused by tyrosine kinase activity. Besides, it inhibits the secretion of epithelial cells at the same time. For this reason, micronized Chinese Medicine can be taken as an inhibitor of tyrosine kinase to prevent epithelial cells of cyst wall proliferating and reduce cyst fluid secretion.

Causes of Polycystic Kidney Disease

Besides hereditary factors, other factors can also cause Polycystic Kidney Disease. It should be remembered that Polycystic Kidney Disease is the result of interaction of both internal factors and external factors. As for Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease, the internal factor is congenital genetic information which refers to cystic gene on the 16th chromosome; external factors of Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease include each factor that can cause abnormal change to organic internal environment. These factors include infections, nephrotoxic material and medicine, mood, tiredness and diet, etc. Under repeated action of external factors, cystic gene change metabolism of tubular epithelial cells firstly, producing growth factors and promoting cell proliferation. Then tubular obstruction and liquid retention happen, which leads to cysts formation. Besides, cystic gene can also change the condition of basement membrane and tubular wall as well as affect the communication between Na-K-ATPase and ion, which can increase cyst fluid secretion. In addition, epithelial cells apoptosis or obstruction caused by external factors directly can also promote cysts formation.

Without repeated action of external factors, internal factors will also not change. This is also the reason why hereditary cyst gene develops into cysts after many years with different developing speed to each other. For this reason, patients who are suffering from Polycystic Kidney Disease should pay high attention on daily diet and care in order to delay or prevent Polycystic Kidney Disease occurring.

Multiple Intracranial Aneurysm of Polycystic Kidney Disease

Multiple Intracranial Aneurysm (MIA) which may gradually develop into rupture and bleeding is rarely seen among Polycystic Kidney Disease patients. Previously, the incidence of MIA is quite different to each report, which is related with emphasis degree and examination methods. With the application of CT technology, many smaller aneurysms with diameter less than 3mm are found. According to the research of 266 Polycystic Kidney Disease patients, 8% patients have MIA without any related symptoms, and 14% patients have intracranial aneurysm with diameter more than 6mm. Rupture rate of intracranial aneurysm among Polycystic Kidney Disease patients is not sure. It had been reported that the incidence of it may be 1/2000 per year, and each patient who is older than 30 years old have an incidence of 1/1000 per year, with higher death rate than End Stage Renal Failure patients caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease.

Intracranial Aneurysm should be treated in order to prevent a secondary bleeding and cerebral ischemia. Both medicine and surgical operation can be taken to treat intracranial aneurysm. As for patients who suffer from headache, Codeine can be taken, but Aspirin is forbidden. More than 25% patients get cerebral ischemia 5 to 14 days after aneurysm rupture. At this moment, vasoactive drugs and calcium antagonist can be used properly. Surgical operation should be taken as early as possible and 72 hours after bleeding is considered as the best period, because nearly 35% patients may have the possibility to get a secondary bleeding.

How Does Micro-Chinese Medicine Treat Polycystic Kidney Disease

In medicine field, Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease is a kind of congenital hereditary disease. Countless isolated cysts with various sizes spread over renal parenchyma. This disease is mainly expressed with symptoms of nocturnal urination, waist pain and High Blood Pressure, etc. Haematuria and light Albuminuria can be found in routine urine test. 10% PKD patients may have Kidney Stone at the same time, while 30% patients have Polycystic Liver Disease. Experienced doctors can make a diagnosis through Type-B Ultrasonic examination and Intravenous Pyelography.

Western Medicine treatment can have an obvious effect on controlling illness development after treatment. But this disease will relapse not long after treatment, because Western Medicine can only treat symptoms of this disease instead of treating the disease itself. Only treating Polycystic Kidney Disease starts with both symptoms and root cause, this disease can be treated radically.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has its own advantages of treating Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease.


Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can play its function on renal lesion directly through skin, blood and channel system of body back. It can secrete highly active Chinese Medicine, producing a high concentration at local part with high bioavailability. Besides, Micro-Chinese Medicine can eliminate immune complex and necrotic tissue completely, which can prevent this disease developing into Chronic Renal Failure. In addition, during the process of Micro-Chinese Medicine, there is no pain with a shorter course and quick effect. Patients can accept this treatment at home, which can shorten the hospitalization time.

Clinical Care for Polycystic Kidney Disease Patients in Each Stage

Caring measures are different according to different illness stage of Polycystic Kidney Disease patients. Clinical care can affect the process of treatment directly. Some details are introduced as follows:

Firstly, as for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients without renal function injury, they should be told related knowledge when they are tested out this disease in order to make patients know more about hereditary characteristic of this disease. Regular check is necessary in order to observe renal function condition in time. Patients should avoid collision, pressing and strenuous exercise as well as prevent Haematuria and urinary tract infection. Besides, patients should take a proper diet and regular life style, developing a correct habit of caring body health and life. Proper exercise and rest is required. Cigarette and alcohol are forbidden.

Secondly, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients who are in compensatory stage complicated with Nephrotic Hypertension should take proper hypotensor to reduce blood pressure on one hand, and on the other hand they should have a scientific diet with low slat, low fat and proper high-quality protein. Patients should have enough rest and avoid tiredness. They should prevent clod and urinary tract infection as well as gastrointestinal tract infection. Regular renal function tests and routine urine test are required.

Thirdly, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients who suffer from early or middle Renal Failure should avoid nephrotoxic medicine which can cause damage to renal parenchyma and aggravate renal function. Because most medicines are excreted out of body by kidney and excreting ability decreases in Renal Failure stage, medicine dosage is increased unconsciously. For this reason, medicine taking time and dosage should be adjusted according to patients’ renal function condition.

Fourthly, in Uremia stage: due to large volume of bilateral kidneys of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients, it can be some difficult for patients to accept Peritoneal Dialysis. So presently, Hemodialysis is mainly used as the treatment of Uremia patients.


The key of treating Polycystic Kidney Disease is to block renal fibrosis, recover injured renal inherent cells and inhibit cyst growing. Through this way, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients can have a longer life with higher quality

How Does Polycystic Kidney Disease Develop into Chronic Renal Failure

Besides cysts compressing and replacing healthy renal tissue, there are also two factors can cause Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) to develop into Renal Failure. One is ischemia, sclerosis or inflammation and fibrosis of non-cystic tissue, including renal tubule, renal interstitium and blood vessel. The other is high perfusion and high filtration of healthy nephron caused by progressive renal function decline. All these factors can damage nephron further. From the above, we can know that condition of surrounding region determines the developing speed of renal function damage.

Besides, Hypertension and urinary tract infection is also a relevant factor of affecting renal function decline. The period of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) developing into Uremia is some similar in one family. Some individual cases may suffer from Renal Failure in young age, while some patients can keep a good renal function until they are 80 years old. Generally, seldom renal function decline happens before patients are 40 years old, and most patients can keep half renal function when they are 70 years old. Male patients usually has a worse prognosis than female, and patients who get this disease earlier also have a worse prognosis than those who get this disease later. This period may be much shorter if Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients suffer from Hypertension at the same time. As for most patients, there is always concentrating functional disorder of renal tubule before glomerular filtrating rate decrease.

In recent years, clinical doctors found that Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can delay or even prevent the process of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) developing into Renal Failure. When PKD Uremia patients accept Western Medicine Treatment, it can be effective to protect remained renal function and recover injured tissue if patients take Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy at the same time. Through this way, patients can live a normal life, even with disease.


From the above, we can see that the period of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) developing into Renal Failure is not fixed. It is closely related with cyst growing speed as well as complications and so on. Specialists on Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) insist that besides factors mentioned above, treatment is the main factor of affecting illness development. For this reason, patients should accept proper treatment actively in order to prevent illness condition aggravation.

Abdominal Masses of Polycystic Kidney Disease Patients

When abdominal masses are found on Polycystic Kidney Disease patients, their size often shows the severity of Polycystic Kidney Disease in some degree. These masses are usually caused by enlarged kidneys. If kidneys grow to some degree, masses can be touched on abdomen region. Bilateral abdominal masses can be touched in 50% to 80% patients, while unilateral masses can be touched among 15% to 30% Polycystic Kidney Disease patients. Through palpation, kidney has close texture with nodule on surface, moving with breath. Pressing pain can be felt when there is an infection.

When abdominal masses are felt on Polycystic Kidney Disease patients, patients should be sent to hospital for a whole body check in order to observe the developing condition of Polycystic Kidney Disease. Active treatment is the best way to treat abdominal masses of Polycystic Kidney Disease.


Through many years of practice and research, Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital has developed Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy which can treat Polycystic Kidney Disease as well as related symptoms effectively. This treatment has absorbed the advantages from both Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine, treating Polycystic Kidney Disease radically, which can inhibit cysts forming greatly.
Once Polycystic Kidney Disease is controlled effective, the symptoms and complications, abdominal masses included, can be relieved at the same time.

What to Do with Bilateral Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a kind of congenital Kidney Disease, always involving bilateral kidneys. Once patients are diagnosed as Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), what should they do? Shrink or treat it actively? The answer is the later one. If Polycystic Kidney Disease patients control cysts growing effectively and prevent this disease developing into Renal Failure and Uremia, they can live healthily, even with disease.

Firstly, Polycystic Kidney Disease patients should keep a positive mental condition and build up confidence to overcome this disease. Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is the result of the interaction of both congenital factors and acquired factors. It has been researched that most of these factors can be controlled or changed, or even eliminated. So Polycystic Kidney Disease patients should have a positive attitude instead of pessimistic mentality. Besides, positive mental condition is helpful for patients to improve their immunity, which is beneficial for them to overcome this disease.

Secondly, scientific medicine intake is also important. Scientific medicine should be taken to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease from the causes of cysts forming and growing. Doctor’s advice is necessary.

Thirdly, on the aspect of daily diet: patients should avoid salted food, spicy food, polluted food as well as broiled and greasy food. As for patients who suffer from Renal Insufficiency or Uremia, they should also avoid bean and bean products. Animal high-protein food and greasy food are also forbidden.

Fourthly, patients should have enough rest and avoid strenuous physical activity and abdominal trauma in order to prevent cyst rupture. Re-examination every half a year is required, blood pressure, routine urine test, renal function tests and Type-B Ultrasonic examination included. All nephrotoxic medicine is forbidden.

The last point: patients should prevent infection and control Hypertension actively, in order to prevent Renal Insufficiency happening.


As for the treatment of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is suggested. Through Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, active substances of Chinese Medicine can get into kidney directly, activating DNA and DNA synthesis, which has perfected the repairing and rebuilding mechanism of injured kidney. Through these methods, injured renal structure can be improved and renal function return gradually. It has been proved by clinical practice that Micro-Chinese Medicine is effective and convenient to treatment Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD).

Operation Effect on Treating Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

Surgical operations can relieve the pressure from large cysts on kidneys. But when the pressure from large cysts is reduced, small cysts can be in a more relax environment with less pressure, which make these small cysts grow rapidly, compressing renal parenchyma for another time. Besides, operation trauma is also a great damage to kidneys.

When single cyst is larger than 4cm, operation is usually considered. Patients who suffer from early and middle stage Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) can choose Cyst Decortication which can prevent remained healthy nephron from being damaged further and relieve renal ischemia condition. By this way, part nephron can be recovered, which delays the development of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). But for patients suffering from end stage Polycystic Kidney Disease, this operation can play very little role. Therefore, if patients suffer from rapidly developing illness condition and obvious symptoms with reclined renal function and continuous High Blood Pressure, they should accept operation as early as possible. Bilateral operations should have duration of 3 to 6 months.

Advantages and disadvantages of Cyst Decortication to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease:

Advantages: Cyst Decortication can prevent remained healthy nephron from compressing and being damaged further, which can relieve the condition of renal ischemia, recover function of part nephron and delay illness development. It has the function of reducing blood pressure, relieving pain, improve renal function and living quality as well as delaying the process of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) developing into End Stage Renal Failure.

Disadvantages: operation can eliminate some larger cysts effectively, but when larger cysts are removed, there will be more space left for smaller cysts, which can make smaller cysts grow more rapidly. With these smaller cysts growing, they will damage kidneys for another time. For this reason, the largest disadvantage of operation is that it can only treat the surface problems instead of treating the disease itself.

As for patients suffering from end stage Polycystic Kidney Disease, Cyst Decortication can play very limited role in treating this disease. Instead, this operation can worsen renal function damage further. Recent years, Laparoscopy Cyst Decortication is used to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease. But because the countless number and various size of these cysts as well as the limitation of minimal invasive surgery, this operation can not reduce pressure of all these cysts. For this reason, this treatment is not taken as routine treatment. It is only suitable to deal with some larger cysts of Polycystic Kidney Disease in order to improve part of renal function and relieve related symptoms.

In one word, operation can not treat Polycystic Kidney Disease from its primary cause which refers to Renal Fibrosis. This is also the reason why Haematuria and cysts relapse frequently. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy which can block Renal Fibrosis is suggested to Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients.

Be Aware of Harms Caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease

Polycystic Kidney Disease patients should be aware of harms of Polycystic Kidney Disease, and why? In daily life, many children are found symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), but most parents do not realize the harms that caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease and they pay no attention on it. However, harms caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease are serious. Due to kinds of symptoms, patients can not live a normal life as others.

Harms of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD): the only harm of Simple Kidney Cyst is to develop into malignant cyst with tiny chance. But Polycystic Kidney Disease causes different harms. In the process of cysts growing, renal inherent cell injury may appear. Then harms caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) appear, which refers to Chronic Renal Failure and Uremia, with Renal Insufficiency more common among clinical PKD cases.

When Renal Insufficiency happens, Polycystic Kidney Disease patients can get symptoms such as Hypertension, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms at different degree. In the early stage, Polycystic Kidney Disease usually do not pay enough attention to this disease until this disease develops into Renal Insufficiency, or even End Stage Renal Failure and Uremia. At this moment, accumulated toxin in body can not be excreted out of body normally. With more and more toxin accumulation, patients have to accept Dialysis.


Therefore, Polycystic Kidney Disease patients should improve their awareness of their disease. If patients can learn more about this disease and pay more attention on their daily diet and care, they can prevent Renal Insufficiency happening effectively.

Cases of Polycystic Kidney Disease Complicated with Hypertension

Patient: Zhao Hai
Gender: Male
Age: 48 years old
Province: Sichuan Province
Main Cause: patient has been suffered from back ache for more than one year and vertigo for 2 months.

Diagnosis: Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), Nephrotic Hypertension, Nephrotic Anemia.

Patient’s condition when he went to our hospital: Heart Rate: 84/min, heart beat is regular and strong without heart murmur. Abdomen is plain and there is no pressing pain. Patients feel painful when they are knocked bilateral kidney region.

Test Result: Blood Pressure, 170/110mmHg; Creatinine, 625μmol/L; Blood Urea Nitrogen, 14.5mmol/L; Hemoglobin, 65g/L.

Through Type-B Ultrasonic: left kidney, 19.3×6.1×5.3cm, with many cysts inside; right kidney, 18.5×5.9×5.1cm, with many cysts inside.

Patient had a low appetite and felt tasteless.

Treatment: after hospitalization, Western Medicine is used to enrich blood and excrete toxin with the purpose of treating symptoms, and Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is taken to treat primary kidney damage. After three-day treatment, symptom of vertigo disappears. Patient has a better appetite. After fifteen-day treatment, symptom of back ache is relieved and patient has a ruddy appearance.
Blood Pressure is tested for 140/90mmHg.

Secondary examination after 20 days later: creatinine, 402μmol/L; Blood Urea Nitrogen, 11.3mmol/L; Hemoglobin, 80g/L. through Type-B Ultrasonic examination: left kidney, 18.5×5.7×5.1cm; right kidney, 18.1×5.6×5cm.


Experts Comment: discomforts of Anemia, Hypertension, low appetite and other symptoms are caused by cysts which can compress Kidney. So the basic problem is cystic pressure on surrounding tissues. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can treat Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) starting with repairing damaged kidney with the purpose of treating primary causes. Once the root cause, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), is relieved, the complications caused by it will disappear gradually.

Can Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) Be Inherited Certainly

Can Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) be inherited certainly? Simply, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a kind of hereditary disease indeed. It can be inherited, but not with 100% possibility. The hereditary feature of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) can be introduced as follows:

Firstly, both male and female can get this disease with equal incidence. Secondly, if one of parents has Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), each of their children may get this disease at the possibility of 50%, and this number will increase to 75% if both parents have this disease. Thirdly, children who do not have this disease do not carry cyst gene. Even when they marry opposite sex person who do not have Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), their children will not get this disease, so do their skipped generation. Patients who get this disease through gene mutation instead of parent gene are rarely seen.

Actually, some people have a familial history of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), but they are not tested out this disease when they are more than 20 years old. Most people are confused by this condition. Does it mean these people do not inherit this disease and even in the future they will not get this disease? In fact, it is not correct. Because Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) usually happens when patients are 30 to 50 years old, and maybe few cases are earlier. So as for people who have a familial history of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), they should go to hospital for body check regularly. Once abnormality is found through Type-B Ultrasonic examination, patients should accept treatment actively.


Clinical evidence shows that: the key of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) aggravation is that this disease is not controlled effectively in the early stage. As long as patients accept proper treatment actively, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients can have a longer life even with disease.

Tests That Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) Patients Need

Knowing more about tests items that Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients need to accept is helpful for patients to keep a steady mental condition when they are accepting these tests. Due to complex condition of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), many tests are needed to make a diagnosis. For this reason, it is necessary for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients to learn more about these tests.

Ⅰ. Routine Urine Test: seldom abnormality can be found in early stage, but microscopic Haematuria can be found in middle or late stage. Some patients have Albuminuria because cysts compress glomerulus which may reduce glomerular filtrating rate. When this disease is complicated with Stones and infections, White Blood Cells and pyocyte can be found in urine.

Ⅱ. Urine osmotic pressure test: even if there is only very few cysts in kidneys in the early stage of Polycystic Kidney Disease, manifestation of kidney concentration damage can be found, showing that this damage is not only related with renal structure injury. It may also be related with renal slow reaction to antidiuretic hormone. Kidney concentration ability decreases before glomerular filtration rate decline.

Ⅲ. Serum creatine is increasing progressively with renal compensatory ability losing. Creatinine clearance rate is a relatively sensitive index.

Ⅴ. IVP examination shows deformation of renal pelvis and renal calices. Renal pelvis and renal calices are in strange spiderlike shape, with plain and wide renal calices and thin and long renal pelvis neck.

Ⅵ. Through Type-B Ultrasonic examination, a large number of shadows can be found in bilateral kidney region.

Ⅶ. CT examination shows bilateral kidney enlargement in lobulated shape, and many cysts with thin cyst wall and fluid inside can be found.


Once Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients are diagnosed, they should accept treatment actively so as not to delay illness treatment and cause kidney damage. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is suggested to treat Polycystic Kidney Disease. This treatment can treat this disease starting with blocking Renal Fibrosis, repairing injured kidney. It has proved by clinical practice that Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy has it distinctive effect on treating Polycystic Kidney Disease.

How Does Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) Happen

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a kind of genetic Kidney Disease, mainly caused by gene deletion. This disease can be divided into Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease and Infant Polycystic Kidney Disease. Well then, what factors can cause this two type Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD).

Ⅰ. Causes of Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease:

Normally, Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease is caused by deletion of 16 chromosome, or sometimes by deletion of 4 chromosome occasionally. It belongs to autosomal dominant inheritance with 100% penetrance. Therefore, children can inherit this disease at 50% possibility if one of their parents has gene deletion.

Ⅱ. Causes of Infant Polycystic Kidney Disease:

Infant Polycystic Kidney Disease is a kind of autosomal recessive inheritance, which means that only both parents have gene of Polycystic Kidney Disease, their children can get this disease with incidence of 25%. In Infant Polycystic Kidney Disease, cyst cavity is in a size of needle head, and there is very little renal tissue among cysts. With cysts growing, renal parenchyma can atrophy due to pressure from cysts. For this reason, medulla and cortex can not develop fully.
Yellow brow mucous, abscess or blood liquid can be found in cyst cavity. Besides, cysts are isolated with renal pelvis.

During the process of embryo forming, due to action of various factors, gene mutation which causes Polycystic Kidney Disease happens. Though this condition seldom happens, it still has the possibility. Therefore, some Polycystic Kidney Disease patients can have no parents’ hereditary history.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is suggested to Polycystic Kidney Disease patients. Compared with Western Medicine treatment, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can treat Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) starting with shrinking cysts and repairing injured kidney. Through many years of clinical practice, it has been proved that Micro-Chinese Medicine has a significant effect on treating Polycystic Kidney Disease. It has helped many Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients live a normal life.

Daily Symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) Patients

Knowing about symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) can be beneficial to timely diagnosis. Once patients know more about this disease, they will cooperate with doctors actively, which is helpful to get a better prognosis. Well then, what symptoms can Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients get?

Firstly, Hypertension appears frequent among symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), happening before renal function decline. Besides, it has close relationship with excessive activity of renin-angiotensin system. Therefore, once Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients have increasing blood pressure, they should be cautious about it and take timely body check, because Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is not formed in one day. Hypertension is one of signals appeared before Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) happens, so if patients pay high attention to it and take proper treatment, it will lay a good foundation for the future treatment.

Secondly, Anemia: most Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients suffer from Anemia from light to heavy, usually accompanied by nocturnal urination. This symptom is always related with renal function decline and decrease of erythrogenin secreted by kidney.

Thirdly, discomfort or concealed pain on waist and abdomen: this symptom usually happens in the early stage of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). Exercise, long-term sitting and tiredness can cause pressure on patients back and waist, causing continuous or intermittent sharp pain. It is usually caused by kidney enlargement or increasing kidney capsular tensility.

Fourthly, abdominal masses: when kidney enlarges to a certain degree, masses with various sizes can be touched on unilateral or bilateral upper abdomen, moving with breath. Pressing pain can be felt when there is an infection at the same time.


All above symptoms are common among Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients. Due to individual body condition, each patient may have different symptoms. When Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) patients choose a treatment, they should communicate with their doctor actively in order to decide a correct and proper treatment, which can help patients recover better.
