Ultrasonography has profoundly modified the diagnostic conditions of polycystic renal dysplasia in children. Non-palpable forms, which were previously most frequently missed, can now be detected during the antenatal period. In infants, ultrasonography generally provides a definite diagnosis, which can be confirmed by aspiration-opacification of the cysts. On the basis of a series of 40 cases and a review of the literature, the authors discuss the therapeutic implications of these new data. Surgery remains essential in cases of palpable polycystic renal dysplasia, especially when it is complicated. However, in the sub-clinical forms, as the risks of malignant degeneration and the incidence of post-operative complications are minimal in the one case and undefinable in the other, surgical excision is possible but not essential.
