Overview

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a condition where fluid-filled cysts grow in the kidneys, making them larger and reducing function. This can cause pain, high blood pressure, and kidney problems over time. 

Treatment options

 Treatments can help manage symptoms and protect kidney function.
