Polycystic Kidney Disease

This entry is adapted from the peer-reviewed paper https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/polycystic-kidney-disease

Polycystic kidney disease is a disorder that affects the kidneys and other organs. Clusters of fluid-filled sacs, called cysts, develop in the kidneys and interfere with their ability to filter waste products from the blood. The growth of cysts causes the kidneys to become enlarged and can lead to kidney failure. Cysts may also develop in other organs, particularly the liver.
