Polycystic kidney disease, or PKD is a genetic kidney disease, and there will be numerous fluid-filled sacs formed on kidneys. And the kidney cysts will be increased and get enlarged over time, which will oppress the surrounding kidney tissues and cause kidney damage. Some patients may wonder what problems can arise if their PKD left untreated. In this article, we will have further understanding of this question.

What problems can arise if polycystic kidney disease (PKD) left untreated?

Polycystic kidney disease is a progressive kidney disease, so patients may have no symptoms in their early stage. However, with the development of PKD, the cysts will be increased and get enlarged, which will oppress surrounding kidney tissues and cause kidney damage. If patients don’t have effective treatment, they will finally develop into end stage kidney failure, and they will have some severe symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, high blood pressure, enlarged kidneys, severe back pain, etc. When their kidneys lost most of their kidney function, they may need to have dialysis or kidney transplant.

Besides, if the cyst is larger than 4 cm, it will get ruptured easily, which will increase the progression, and cause infections to kidneys. In addition, they can also have some severe complications, such as kidney stones, urinary tract infection (UTI), polycystic liver, brain aneurysm, etc. All these will be very harmful for PKD patients, and it can be life-threatening for them. So PKD patients need to have effective treatment as early as possible.
