In uremic and dialysed patients, acquired renal cystic disease (ARCD) and its possible neoplastic degeneration are well-known. The aim of the paper is to assess the incidence of this pathology among dialysed patients in our Renal Unit. Final results have been achieved after three years. The evidence is that this pathology increases in older patients with respect to age and/or to long-term dialysis; we confirm neoplastic degeneration in two patients.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
