What Is PKD?

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is an inherited disorder in which clusters of cysts develop within the kidneys, causing them to enlarge and lose function over time. It affects about 1 in 500 people.

Treatment Options

While there is no cure for PKD, our team provides comprehensive management to slow cyst growth, control symptoms, and preserve kidney function. Treatment may include blood pressure medications, pain management, dietary changes, and preparation for dialysis or transplant.
