Mortality
- Cardiovascular
- Infection, septicemia
- Subarachnoid hemorrhage
- Uremia
Clinical Features
- Clinical presentation typically begins in 3rd to 4th decade of life, but may be detectable in childhood
- Abdominal pain, flank pain and/or back pain is most common initial symptom.
- Pain due to:
- enlargement of cysts
- bleeding within cyst or gross hematuria with clots or perinephric hematoma
- urinary tract infection
- nephrolithiasis
- Pain due to:
- Hematuria
- self-limited
- cysts are susceptible to traumatic injury
- Hypertension
- common early manifestation
- increased diastolic
