Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease
Diagnosis:
Made mostly by clinical criteria
Markedly enlarged echogenic kidneys at birth with poor corticomedullary differentiation
Microcysts in linear radial pattern in cortex and medulla. Disease confined to collecting tubules
Kidney biopsy usually not necessary
Genetic testing for the PKHD1 gene usually not needed if clinical criteria are met
-Hepatic findings
Hepatic fibrosis
Hepatomegaly
Dilated intrahepatic (sometimes extrahepatic) bile ducts and mild echogenicity
Liver function test generally normal
-Lung
Pulmonary hypoplasia
Respiratory insufficiency
-Renal function (i.e. BUN and creatinine) impaired
-Hypertension treated with ACE inhibitors. May also require addition of nifedipine, hydralazine, and hydrochlorothiazide
-Growth failure – may need growth hormone
-Anemia – treated with oral iron and epoetin; may require PRBC transfusions

PSAGN Clinical Diagnosis**
Hematuria
Proteinuria
Edema
Hypertension
Laboratory Evaluation for PSAGN**
1. Urinalysis
Blood
Protein
Concentrated urine
Casts
-RBC
-Granular
2. Metabolic panel to assess renal function (BUN, Cr)
3. Document strep infection

Prognosis of PSAGN**
Very good
Hematuria and hypertension last several months
Treat strep infection
>95% recover completely
Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome/HUS
Characteristic triad
1. Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia
2. Thrombocytopenia
3. Renal Injury (insufficiency or failure)
Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome/HUS
Pathophysiology
-Verotoxins
Shiga-like toxin from E. coli 0157:H7
Outbreaks from contaminated meat,fruit,vegtables and water
HUS results in 5-25% of affected children
Any bacteria which makes verotoxins can cause HUS
