Abstract
Renal dysplasia and congenital cystic diseases of the kidney encompass a wide variety of conditions with varying presentations. They can be sporadic or inherited disorders and can be isolated to the kidney or can be a part of a condition affecting many organ systems. The clinical significance of these conditions can vary widely, with some patients having incidental discovery of a lesion that may have little to no impact on their lives and other patients having conditions that result in end-stage renal disease or death as a neonate. In this chapter, the clinical presentation, evaluation, and treatment are discussed for each disorder.
