Why do you have polycystic kidney

summary

As a child studying medicine, we have a lot to learn. Recently, we just talked about the kidney, so the teacher gave us a systematic introduction about kidney diseases, including polycystic kidney. Let's talk about why we have polycystic kidney.

Why do you have polycystic kidney

First, the causes of congenital dysplastic renal cysts. Congenital dysplasia can produce a variety of diseases. For cystic nephropathy, it can mainly cause medullary sponge kidney, dysplastic polycystic kidney disease, etc. the gene of congenital dysplasia is not abnormal, so it is different from gene inheritance or gene mutation.

Second: all kinds of infections. Infection can cause abnormal changes in the internal environment of the organism, thus creating environmental conditions conducive to the genetic changes of cysts, enhancing the activity of internal factors of cysts, thus promoting the birth and growth of cysts; and any infection in any part of the body will enter the kidney through blood, thus affecting cysts. If cysts are infected, it will not only aggravate the clinical symptoms, but also promote the growth of cysts It can accelerate the growth of cyst and aggravate the damage of renal function.

Third: gene mutation (non genetic). For polycystic kidney disease, most of them are inherited through parents' genes, which are divided into autosomal dominant inheritance and autosomal recessive inheritance. However, some patients with polycystic kidney disease are neither inherited by parents nor belong to congenital dysplastic polycystic kidney disease, but gene mutation during embryogenesis.

matters needing attention

As ordinary people, we also need to know more about some related knowledge, such as why we suffer from polycystic kidney disease, or how we should do in peacetime to stay away from this disease. Only by knowing these, can we really do a good job in prevention.
