There is no much preference of any particular sex, when it comes to polycystic kidney disease, probably.

Polycystic kidney disease is the medical term meaning genetic disorder characterized by the growth of numerous fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys. Over time, these cysts interferer with kidney function.

There are several polycystic syndromes known. Two of the more commonly studied are polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and polycystic kidney disease (PKD). These diseases form many cysts over an area.

Nephrologists are doctors that specialize in the treatment of kidneys. They treat kidney conditions such as polycystic kidney disease.

Polycystic disease is a congenital defect in which one or both of the kidneys have numerous large cysts.

One in every 500 live birth, suffer from polycystic kidney disease. There are about 12.5 million people, suffering from this disease. That make this disease as one of the most common life threatening genetic disease.

Approximately one in 453 or .22% of Americans have polycystic kidney disease. That is about 600,000 Americans.

The medical term for this condition is polycystic kidney disease (PKD). It is a genetic disorder characterized by the development of numerous fluid-filled cysts in both kidneys, which can lead to kidney enlargement and loss of normal kidney function over time.

There are many places where one could find information about polycystic kidney disease. You can find information from your doctor. Or from the Internet. From reading a book or brochure or even from a friend.

Chronic kidney (renal) failure.

Polycystic kidney disease is an inherited disorder that causes cysts to be formed on the nephrons, or functioning units, of the kidneys

The signs and symptoms of polycystic kidney include; High blood pressure Back or side pain Headache Increase in the size of your abdomen Blood in your urine Frequent urination Kidney stones Kidney failure Urinary tract or kidney infections The treatment for this disease is to see your doctor to determine what might be causing them.

Yes,Polycystic kidney disease causes many cysts (fluid-filled sacs) to develop in the kidneys. The most common type is an inherited condition called autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). With ADPKD, problems commonly do not develop until the age of 30-50, with some people never developing any problems. The two common problems that develop are high blood pressure and kidney failure. About half of people with ADPKD develop kidney failure requiring dialysis or a kidney transplant by the age of 60.

A baby does not need to be born with polycystic kidney disease. PKD is caused by a genetic defect.

It is a mutated gene called PKD1 located on chromosome 16.

The condition known as polycystic kidney disease is inherited and the cysts slowly reduce kidney function and leads to kidney failure. the condition can also effect the liver and pancreas.

Not yet....but someday there will be. There is a lot of research going on. They are doing experimental testing with drugs that will slow the progression of cyst growth. I have polycystic kidney disease and so do my teenage sons. Right now the best thing to help yourself is to watch your diet...no caffeine, low sodium, low animal protein, eliminate alcohol and smoking. Monitor your blood pressure regularly. You should join the polycystic kidney foundation and stay knowledgable. Most of all stay positive!! :)

Renal polycystic disease is a genetic disorder characterized by the growth of cysts in the kidneys. These cysts can interfere with kidney function over time, leading to complications such as high blood pressure, kidney stones, and impaired kidney function. Treatment usually focuses on managing symptoms and maintaining kidney function.

Anwar Wagdi died on May 14, 1955, in Stockholm, Sweden of polycystic kidney disease.

polycystic kidney disease, bacteria build up in their wrinkles, eye problems, and breathing problems.

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is not usually sex-linked. It can be inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning that one copy of the mutated gene is enough to cause the condition. Both males and females have equal chances of inheriting and passing on the disease.

Chris Udvarnoky died on October 25, 2010, in Elizabeth, New Jersey, USA of polycystic kidney disease.

Polycystic kidney disease is caused by a genetic mutation that leads to the formation of fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning an affected parent has a 50% chance of passing the gene onto their child. The cysts can grow over time and interfere with kidney function, potentially leading to kidney failure. Early detection and management are important to slow the progression of the disease.

Some urinary diseases that may require a kidney transplant include end-stage renal disease (ESRD), polycystic kidney disease, glomerulonephritis, and diabetes-related kidney failure. These diseases can severely impair kidney function, leading to the need for a transplant to restore proper kidney function and improve the individual's quality of life.

I have polycystic kidney disease (PKD) which is hereditary. If your look at this link in wikipedia there are some other.

The most common cause of renal failure in Australia is diabetes mellitus, which can lead to diabetic nephropathy, a type of kidney disease. Other common causes include hypertension, glomerulonephritis, and polycystic kidney disease. Early detection and management of these conditions can help prevent progression to renal failure.

The top nephrologist in India is a trained physician who has specialised degree in diagnosing and treating adult and pediatric kidney diseases. He ensures that a person's kidneys maintain good health and function properly. The various diseases treated by him are chronic & polycystic kidney diseases, acute renal failure, high BP and stones in Kidney.

Hydronephrosis is the medical term for distension of a kidney caused by the buildup of urine. It can be due to obstruction, such as a kidney stone or tumor, leading to swelling and potential kidney damage if left untreated. Treatment may involve addressing the underlying cause and relieving the obstruction.

The prefix "poly-" in polycystic means multiple or many. In the case of polycystic, it indicates the presence of multiple cysts.

No, antibiotics are not used and not effective for treating polycystic ovarian syndrome.

Several factors can affect the kidneys, including high blood pressure, diabetes, certain medications, dehydration, urinary tract infections, and chronic diseases like polycystic kidney disease. Lifestyle factors such as excessive alcohol consumption and smoking can also have a negative impact on kidney health.

Polycystic kidney disease (PKR) affects kidneys

Jennie Joyce was born on December 22, 1946, in Portland, Oregon, USA.

There are several different types of kidney disease. These include inflammation of the filtering parts of the kidney (called glomerulonephritis), polycystic kidney disease, an inherited genetic disorder where the kidney tissues become replaced by cysts, and scarring of the kidney tissues caused by backflow of the urine from the bladder (called reflux nephropathy), which is caused by structural defects.

Diabetic kidney disease which damages the kidneys' filtering membranes, and kidney disease due to high blood pressure are other forms of kidney disease

A hole in the kidney, such as a rupture due to trauma or a medical condition, can be life-threatening if not promptly treated. It can lead to severe internal bleeding, infection, and other complications that may result in death if left untreated. Immediate medical attention is crucial in case of a kidney hole.

Yes, women with polycystic ovarian syndrome are not barred from donating blood.

Polycystic kidney disease was first described by doctors Richard Bright and Robert Friderich in the early 19th century, who observed the characteristic cysts in the kidneys of affected individuals during autopsies.

I have a Persian named Max, born June 1990 just turned 19 years living in Michigan.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Bilateral means on both ovaries. That is there are cysts in both ovaries.

Heredity can influence the structure and function of organs in the excretory system, such as the kidneys. Genetic predispositions may increase the risk of developing conditions like polycystic kidney disease or kidney stones. Additionally, inherited conditions can impact how the body processes and eliminates waste products, leading to differences in overall excretory system function among individuals.

It does not favor male or female, both have an equal chance of inheriting the disease. If a parent has the disease each child whether male or female have a 50% chance of inheriting the disease.

No, you cannot catch it.
