Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is caused by abnormal gene. In present medicine area, there is no cure for the disease. However, if they can receive treatment in time, it is possible for them to avoid Renal Failure. The conservative therapies for Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) are as follows:

It has been proved in clinic that Diabetic Nephropathy starts hidden, there are no any clinical symptoms, except increased microalbumin, although glomerulus has been damaged. In clinic, once the sign of persistent proteinuria occur, the progressive losing of kidney function will can’t be blocked. If patients with Diabetic Nephropathy in such stage, about 25% of them in 6 years, 50% of them in 10 years, and about 75% of them in 15 years will suffer from End-Stage of Renal Failure. The life expectancy is only 10 years, if protein is found in urine for patients with Diabetes.

Is there any possibility for sufferers with Renal Failure to avoid dialysis? For many people renal failure is like a death sentence, because it is still the unconquered problem all over the world at present. We human being are so helpless when facing with this intractable disease. All the sufferers have no other choice but waiting for dialysis, and even death. However, isn't there any way to fight against the disease? Isn't there any alternatives that can be adopted to avoid dialysis?

Malnutrition is the common complication of dialysis. The best way to avoid this situation is a proper handled diet. It is estimated that malnutrition occurs in about half of the dialysis patients. Occurrence of malnutrition has much adverse effect to the patients, including increased incidence of heart failure and myocardial infarction, accelerated deteriorating of renal function as well as increased death rate. For this reason, dialysis patients must follow a healthy diet to prevent this situation.

Polycystic Kidney Disease is a kind of hereditary kidney disease, it belongs to congenital anomaly. The pathology of Polycystic Kidney Disease is the maldevelopment of Renal tissues and renal constructure, and generally it is bilateral kidney disease. The reason why patients with PKD have high blood pressure is the cysts' oppressing to the normal renal tissues, thus leading to renal ischemia, anoxia and hypoperfusion. In this way, patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease will have high blood pressure.

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) often leads to kidney failure due to continued enlargement of the cysts. Treatment therefore focuses on slowing the progression of kidney failure and treating the associated features of the disease, such as kidney infections or kidney stones and flank or abdominal pain.

High blood pressure is prevalent among elderly people in past. Whereas, it tends to affect young people nowadays. Elevated blood pressure could be primary or secondary, and massive clinical observations tell that high blood pressure can be a very prevalent complication secondary to Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). Once elevated blood pressure occurres in patients with PKD, it usually indicates renal function aggravates from 2nd stage to 3rd stage of Chronic Kidney Disease in clinical diagnosis.

Kidney diseases are hard to be cured, except for some cute nephritis and so on. Likewise, for the disease of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), a type of genetic disease, a complete cure is not available up to now.
