Both kidneys are larger than normal size.
Multiple varying-sized simple cysts are visible in both kidneys.
A few small simple cysts are also noted in the left and right hepatic lobes.
Multiple tiny peribiliary cysts detected.
The pancreas and spleen show normal size and echogenicity without evidence of cyst formation.
All the above features are in favor of ADPKD.
Case Discussion
ADPKD is a multisystemic cystic disease characterized by multiple cyst formations visible in the kidney and other organs such as the liver, spleen, and pancreas.
This disease sometimes presents with new mutations and doesn't always have a positive family history.
