associated with bilateral enlargement of the kidneys and multiple cysts in both the cortex and medulla. Hepatic cysts present in most cases, as well as splenic and pancreatic cysts
ADPKD
Marked enlargement of bilateral kidneys and innumerable cysts throughout the cortex and medulla
Often progresses to tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis and even renal failure
Liver involvement ALWAYS present in the form of hepatic fibrosis, cysts, cholangitis, biliary dysgenesis
ARPKD
If you find multiple cysts on a babies kidneys what other organ must you check?
LIVER. ARPKD wil always have liver involvement
In ARPKD, liver involvement is ALWAYS present in what forms?

Following GABH pharyngitis or impetigo-pydoerma by 2-21 days
What is the MOA in which GABH srep is nephritogenic?
activated the completment system and causes glomerular rpoliverative and inflammatory response. This causes a decrease in volume of glomerular filtrate and capacity to excrete salt and water which then causes an expansion of extracellular fluid (edema)
what are the signs and sx of AGN?

minimal change disease
what tx are most patients responsive to for minimal change dz?
most respond to steroids
good sign if they do, favorbale long term outcomes and low risk of chronic renal dz
if a child with minimal change dz is not responding to steroid tx what should we do?
renal bx is indicated. there may be underlying pathology
