'''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. | |||

*[[Multicystic renal dysplasia]] - has larger variability of cyst size. | |||
