I am not a doctor but I do have my mother who has PKD. Both her kidneys failed when she was 48 years old. She is now almost 71 years old and goes for dialysis treatments 3 times a week. I know this does not answer the question, for I believe each individual is different with different cases, I am just going by my mom. My brother and I also have the disease and we are good. If kidneys fail there are alternatives these days, whether dialysis, or kidney transplant. You can live as long as you stay healthy and go for checkups and stuff.

People can live a normal length of time after the transplant. How ling they will live is mostly determined by how old they are at the time, their general health other than the kidney disease, and how they do with the transplant.
A kidney.
