Kidney Disease Ep. 04 | Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)
In this episode, we dive into Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), a genetic condition that causes numerous cysts to form in the kidneys, potentially leading to kidney failure over time. We explore how PKD develops, the different types (Autosomal Dominant PKD and Autosomal Recessive PKD), and the genetic factors involved. Our discussion also covers the symptoms, such as high blood pressure, abdominal pain, and kidney enlargement, along with diagnostic tools like ultrasound and genetic testing.

Listeners will gain insight into the latest treatment options, including lifestyle changes, medications to manage symptoms, and when dialysis or a kidney transplant might be necessary. This episode is crucial for anyone looking to understand PKD better, whether you're a patient, caregiver, or simply interested in kidney health.

Tune in to learn more about the challenges and advancements in managing Polycystic Kidney Disease and how ongoing research is striving to improve outcomes for those affected.
