What Are the Treatments of Polycystic Kidney Disease

In modern society, the treatments on PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease) mainly include surgical therapy, dialysis and kidney transplant, combination of Chinese and western medicine and so on. As a kind of hereditary disease, Polycystic Kidney Disease can't be treated fundamentally by far. So it is extremely important to find and prevent the complication, as well as treat generated complication in a right way. Well, what are the solutions for the treatment of Polycystic Kidney Disease? Which is better among all the solutions?

[Surgical therapy] LRCD (cyst decortication): as cysts lighten the burden to renal parenchyma, most of the remaining nephrons avoid being squeezed and damaged, which improves the condition of renal ischemia, recovers some kidney units and delays the deterioration of the disease. Whether operation is successful or not is largely based on the early performance of operation. Besides, the decompression should be conducted thoroughly, which means the small or deep cysts should not be neglected. Both kidney need operations. Generally speaking, the spacing interval between the two operations should be longer than half year. Whether hypertension appears or not, the late cases such as Azotemia or Uremia, decompression treatment is meaningless, because surgical strike only can aggravate the disease on the contrary.

[Dialysis and Kidney Transplant]

Patients should accept dialysis treatment in the later stage of Kidney Failure and the first choice is hemodialysis. The survival rate of kidney transplant for Polycystic Kidney Disease is nearly the same with that due to other reasons. But the postoperative difficulty which is caused by co-occurring diseases affects the kidney transplant.

[Combination of Chinese and western medicine: Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy]
Because genes can't be changed, the clinical treatment mainly starts from cysts with the combination of Chinese traditional and western medicine. Western medicine treatment depends on symptoms, that is, it controls disease according to existing clinical indicators. Therefore, it can only treat the symptoms instead of removing the root. So we should combine symptomatic treatment and Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment together to control cysts according to their growing trend. Namely, we kill cyst epithelial cells to make them lose secretion activity. Without sac liquid, cysts would stop growing.

For the existing cysts, we can't let them alone. It is necessary to increase the permeability of cyst surface blood circulation so as to absorb back sac liquid and excrete from urine finally. It treats cysts fundamentally, so it hardly recurs generally. This kind of treatment mainly depends on Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy and makes a suppression therapy according to the growth trend of cysts. The features are as follows:

(1) To kill cyst epithelial cells, make them lose secretion activity and stop cysts growing.

(2) To increase the permeability of cyst surface blood circulation and quicken excretion of sac liquid and shrink cysts back.

[Attention]: Once patients get Polycystic Kidney Disease, they should keep optimistic. If their daily life is not affected, patients should pay attention to the following advice: firstly, avoid stimulating food, such as salty or spicy ones. Secondly, work and rest regularly. Thirdly, keep optimistic. If their daily life is broken, besides the above advice, patients should accept a regular treatment as soon as possible. If it aggravates to Renal Failure Uremia, it will be too late to treat.
