'''Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease''', abbreviated '''ARPKD''', is an uncommon recessive genetic condition leading to [[renal failure]].
 
==General==
*Uncommon.
*Homogenous for mutated ''PKHD1 gene'' (polycystic kidney and hepatic disease).<ref name=omim263200>{{OMIM|263200}}</ref>
**The same gene is implicated in [[Caroli disease]].
*Associated with congenital hepatic fibrosis
 
Subdivided into:<ref name=Ref_Klatt235>{{Ref Klatt|235}}</ref>
*Neonatal.
*Infantile.
*Juvenile.
 
==Gross==
Features:<ref name=Ref_Klatt235>{{Ref Klatt|235}}</ref>
*Marked bilateral enlargement - may almost fill the abdomen.
*Smooth cortical surface.
*Poorly demarcated corticomedullary junction.
 
DDx:
*[[Multicystic renal dysplasia]] - has larger variability of cyst size.

*Numerous cysts of the collecting ducts.
**Typically radially arranged.
