Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease: A Risk Factor for Berry Aneurysm
Keywords:
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, Aneurysms, Subarachnoid hemorrhage
Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is a genetical disorder caused by changes occurred in PKD1 and PKD2 genes and
is characterized mainly by the growth of multiple kidney cysts. It is progressive disorder with symptoms of high blood pressure,
pain in the back and the sides, and also headache. Patients having ADPKD are having a high risk of formation of intracranial
aneurysms. Presenting a case of ADPKD associated with subarachnoid hemorrhage with berry aneurysm and discussed about
the diagnostic approach with imaging modalities in this patient and the treatment.
