Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is characterized by fluid-filled sacs in the kidneys. If the cysts are not controlled very well, they keep growing, resulting in the damage to the kidney tissues. When the cysts is more than 3 cm, it is considered big, so 5.7 cm cysts should be removed as soon as possible, or it will lead to more damage. Besides, the big cysts can make you suffer from severe back pain, hematuria, enlarged kidneys and so on.

If there is only several big cysts on the surface of kidney, you can remove them through surgery. One is sclerotherapy. It is to insert a long needle into your body to pull fluid out of the cysts and then inject alcohol to keep additional cysts from forming. Another is laparoscopic cyst decortication. It is to use laparoscope to guide into the kidney to drain the cysts and then burn the cysts to seal the wound. Surgery can quickly remove the cysts, but once big cysts make room, the small cysts will quickly enlarge. And if the cysts are inside kidneys, surgery could do nothing about it.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy aims at shrinking all the cysts. It is to penetrate the shattered Chinese herbs into the damaged kidneys through osmosis device.
