Polycystic kidney disease is a genetic kidney disease with numerous kidney cysts formed on kidneys and the kidney cysts will get enlarged over time. And the enlargement of kidney cysts will cause some severe symptoms and complications for PKD patients. Then people need to prevent the enlargement of kidney cysts.

Why PKD patients need to have treatment to stop kidney cyst growing?

For PKD patients, there are lots of fluid-filled cysts formed on kidneys and the kidney cysts will be increased and get enlarged as well. When there are lots of kidney cysts occurred on kidneys, they will oppress the surrounding kidney tissues and cause kidney damage for PKD patients. When the kidney cysts get larger and larger, the more severe kidney damage it will cause. Then PKD patients will have a bad prognosis with end stage kidney failure.

In addition, when the kidney cysts get into a certain size, they can cause rupture easily, which will cause more severe complications and worsen the kidney failure.

How can kidney cyst stop growing in PKD?

There are two kinds of treatment to stop kidney cyst growing for PKD patients. One is surgery and another is Chinese therapy.

In western countries, when people found there is a large kidney cyst, the doctor will advice them to have a surgery, which can help prevent the cyst rupture. (More information to Routine/General Treatment for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)). Usually in one surgery, doctor can only remove one or two large cysts, and the removed cysts will leave more space to little cyst to grow quickly. So surgery cant stop the growing in PKD fundamentally.

So we recommend another treatment for PKD patients, which is Chinese therapy. Chinese therapy uses traditional Chinese herbal medicine and it uses in different types. Usually, the uses of herbs in Chinese therapy will be different from case to case since the illness condition is different as well. So the doctor will use the different herbs for PKD patients depending on their own illness condition and the herbs have the function of shrinking the big kidney cysts and prevent the continue growth of kidney cysts. In this process, the kidney cyst can stop growing and prevent the progression of kidney failure.
