Causes of polycystic kidney disease

summary

My uncle was diagnosed with polycystic kidney in the early years. Although he has been actively treated, the effect has not been very good. Recently, I found some signs of aggravation. Let me talk about the causes of polycystic kidney.

Causes of polycystic kidney disease

Reason 1: congenital dysplasia: congenital dysplasia can produce a variety of diseases. For cystic nephropathy, it can mainly cause medullary sponge kidney, dysplastic polycystic kidney disease, etc. the gene of congenital dysplasia is not abnormal, so it is different from gene inheritance or gene mutation.

The second reason: all kinds of infection: infection can cause abnormal changes in the internal environment of the body, thus creating environmental conditions conducive to gene changes of cysts, enhancing the activity of internal factors of cysts, thus promoting the formation and growth of cysts; Any infection of any part of the body will enter the kidney through blood, thus affecting the cyst. If the cyst is infected, it will not only aggravate the clinical symptoms, but also accelerate the growth of the cyst, and aggravate the damage of renal function. Common infections include upper respiratory tract infection (including cold), urinary tract infection, gastrointestinal tract infection, skin infection, trauma infection, instrument infection and so on, that is, bacterial infection or viral infection can have a great impact on the cyst.

The third reason: toxin: when it acts on the human body, it can cause damage to various cells, tissues and organs, resulting in diseases and even life-threatening. It is also one of the main reasons for gene mutation and congenital dysplasia.

matters needing attention

Although polycystic kidney disease is not as serious as uremia, it can not be ignored. If polycystic kidney disease is not treated in time or treated improperly, it will develop into uremia. Therefore, we can also see the harm of polycystic kidney disease. Before treatment, we need to understand the cause of the disease, so as to treat it symptomatically.
