Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused primarily by pathogenic variants in the PKD1 and PKD2 genes. Although the type of ADPKD variant can influence disease severity, rare, hypomorphic PKD1 variants have also been reported to modify disease severity or cause biallelic ADPKD. This study examines whether rare, additional, potentially protein-altering, non-pathogenic PKD1 variants contribute to ADPKD phenotypic outcomes.

This group of young surgeons remains largely unstudied and undersupported throughout what may be the most challenging period of their educational journey.

Surgery is a state of mind. The brain controls the hands. As a result, "technical skills" are more mental than technical.
