- Fibropolycystic liver disease encompasses a range of disorders linked to defects in the ductal plate during development, including Caroli's syndrome, polycystic liver disease, biliary hamartomas, and congenital hepatic fibrosis.
- These conditions are often linked to kidney issues like polycystic kidney disease and medullary sponge kidney, with choledochal cysts being debated regarding their inclusion in this spectrum due to differing origins.
- The article aims to review these liver and kidney abnormalities through various imaging techniques while connecting them to their embryological origins, which may aid in accurate diagnosis and management.

Until now, it has been assumed that patients who are infected with SARS-CoV-2 will develop antibodies as has been the case with other coronaviruses, like MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV. In the present study, we analyzed the development of antibodies in 77 patients with an oncologic diagnosis 26 days after positive RT-qPCR testing for SARS-CoV2.
