Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is a genetic disorder characterized by the formation of numerous cysts in the kidneys. These cysts can grow large and disrupt normal kidney function, leading to complications such as high blood pressure and kidney failure. ADPKD is caused by mutations in specific genes, often inherited from one affected parent. Symptoms of ADPKD may include abdominal pain, headaches, and blood in the urine. Diagnosis typically involves imaging tests like ultrasound or CT scans. While there is no cure, treatments focus on managing symptoms and complications to improve quality of life for those affected.
