Cysts grow inside the kidney tissue, leading to enlarged, dysfunctional kidneys. Over time, kidney function declines, potentially leading to kidney failure. Cysts can also develop in other organs like the liver and pancreas. š¹ Symptoms of PKD: High blood pressure š Pain in the back or sides Blood in the urine Kidney stones & frequent infections PKD is one of the most common genetic kidney disorders, affecting millions worldwide. Our 3D animation visualizes how cysts form and impact kidney function.
