Fibrocystic Diseases of the Liver

Summary

Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is an inherited disorder involving cystic dilatation of the renal collecting ducts as well as varying degrees of hepatic abnormalities consisting of cysts, fibrosis, and portal hypertension. The ARPKD locus has been mapped to chromosome 6p21 and encodes a novel protein product named fibrocystin or polyductin. There are several modes of presentation depending on the age and the predominance of hepatic or renal involvement. With improvements in medical management and continued progress in end-stage renal disease therapy in young infants, further improvements in survival and rehabilitation can be anticipated.
