Acquired cystic disease subtype renal cell carcinoma (ACD-RCC): prevalence and imaging features at a single institution.

Purpose: Acquired cystic kidney disease (ACKD) is commonly seen in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and patients with ACKD have an increased risk of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Acquired cystic disease-associated RCC (ACD-RCC) was incorporated into the 2016 World Health Organization Classification. This study aims to describe the imaging features of ACD-RCC, which are not well reported previously.

Acquired Cystic Kidney Disease: A Hidden Complication in Children on Chronic Hemodialysis.

Objective To determine the frequency of acquired cystic kidney disease (ACKD) in children on chronic hemodialysis. Material and methods In this single-center cross-sectional study, 150 children were included who were on chronic hemodialysis for six months. Ultrasound was done to see the renal cysts.

Glomerular hyperfiltration.

Circulating blood is filtered across the glomerular barrier to form an ultrafiltrate of plasma in the Bowman's space. The volume of glomerular filtration adjusted by time is defined as the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and the total GFR is the sum of all single-nephron GFRs. Thus, when the single-nephron GFR is increased in the context of a normal number of functioning nephrons, single glomerular hyperfiltration results in 'absolute' hyperfiltration in the kidney.

Renal Cell Carcinoma in End-Stage Renal Disease: A Review and Update.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) occurring in the setting of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) shows unique clinicopathological characteristics. The two most frequent types of ESRD-associated RCC are acquired cystic kidney disease-associated renal cell carcinoma (ACKD-RCC) and clear-cell papillary renal cell carcinoma (ccpRCC). Other types of RCC also occur in ESRD, albeit with different frequencies from the non-ESRD general population.

Malignancy risk stratification of cystic renal lesions based on a contrast-enhanced CT-based machine learning model and a clinical decision algorithm.

Objective: To distinguish benign from malignant cystic renal lesions (CRL) using a contrast-enhanced CT-based radiomics model and a clinical decision algorithm.

Methods: This dual-center retrospective study included patients over 18 years old with CRL between 2005 and 2018. The reference standard was histopathology or 4-year imaging follow-up.

CT features of acquired cystic kidney disease-associated renal cell carcinoma.

Purpose: Acquired cystic kidney disease-associated renal cell carcinoma (ACKD-RCC) is a relatively recently described entity with scarce literature describing its imaging appearance (1, 2). The purpose of this study was to determine typical and potentially unique features of ACKD-RCC on CT scan that could aid lesion identification.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective review of the CT scans of 24 patients with 29 histologically proven ACKD-RCC lesions was performed.

Acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma: A clinicopathologic study of eight tumors with clinical follow-up.

Acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma (ACD-RCC) is the major RCC subtype in patients with end-stage renal disease, specifically those with ACD on dialysis. Three patients with a total of eight tumors have been selected. The aim of this study was to analyze clinicopathologic, immunohistochemical, and prognostic features of eight ACD-RCCs.

Proton pump inhibitors and increased reporting odds of renal neoplasms: FAERS-based adverse event data mining and analysis.

Background: Long-term use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) is associated with some safety issues. In this study, data mining was carried out to discover the potential association between renal neoplasms and PPIs.

Research Design And Methods: Neoplasms signals of PPIs were detected in the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System from 2014 to 2020 by examining the reporting odds ratio.

[Spontaneous Renal Rupture of Acquired Cystic Kidney Disease after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting:Report of a Case].

We described a hemodialysis patient with spontaneous renal rupture of acquired cystic kidney disease (ACKD) after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting(OPCAB). A 53-year-old man was transfer to our hospital with a diagnosis of unstable angina pectoris. He became ventilated due to congestive heart failure 3 days and underwent OPCAB on schedule 6 days after hospitalization.

A human multi-lineage hepatic organoid model for liver fibrosis.

To investigate the pathogenesis of a congenital form of hepatic fibrosis, human hepatic organoids were engineered to express the most common causative mutation for Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease (ARPKD). Here we show that these hepatic organoids develop the key features of ARPKD liver pathology (abnormal bile ducts and fibrosis) in only 21 days. The ARPKD mutation increases collagen abundance and thick collagen fiber production in hepatic organoids, which mirrors ARPKD liver tissue pathology.

A case of colonoscopy-induced Wunderlich's syndrome in a hemodialysis patient: coincidence or association?

Wunderlich syndrome, or spontaneous renal hemorrhage (SRH), is a rare condition encountered in patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis (HD) usually attributed to acquired cystic kidney disease (ACKD) among other causes. In the literature, colonoscopy is associated with splenic injuries, and renal hemorrhage has not been previously described. Management can range from conservative treatment to angiographic embolization or exploration and nephrectomy.

Renal artery embolization for spontaneous hemorrhage in patients with acquired cystic kidney disease: A 20-year single-center experience.

Objectives: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of transcatheter arterial embolization for controlling spontaneous hemorrhage in patients with acquired cystic kidney disease (ACKD).

Methods: This retrospective study included 18 patients with ACKD (M:F=13:5; mean age, 56 years) who underwent renal artery embolization to control spontaneous hemorrhage between January 2001 and September 2020. The underlying etiology and clinical presentations were reviewed and previous computed tomography (CT) findings were analyzed.

An intracapsular nephrectomy for the acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma in renal transplant allograft: A clinical case report.

Rationale: Acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma (ACKD-RCC) is a unique subtype of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and is found exclusively in patients with end-stage renal disease. We report a case of intracapsular nephrectomy (ICAN) of renal allograft with ACKD-RCC. To our knowledge, this is the first case in Asia of ICAN of renal allograft to treat ACKD-RCC.

Comparable survival outcome between acquired cystic disease associated renal cell carcinoma and clear cell carcinoma in patients with end-stage renal disease: a multi-institutional central pathology study.

Acquired cystic disease (ACD) associated renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is designated as a new subtype unique to patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) according to the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) classification. However, the oncological outcomes of the prognostic factors for patients with this subtype are not fully understood. In the present study, we compared the survival of ACD associated RCC patients who underwent nephrectomy with that of patients with other histological subtypes who developed ESRD.

Refining genotype-phenotype correlations in 304 patients with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease and PKHD1 gene variants.

Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is a severe disease of early childhood that is clinically characterized by fibrocystic changes of the kidneys and the liver. The main cause of ARPKD are variants in the PKHD1 gene encoding the large transmembrane protein fibrocystin. The mechanisms underlying the observed clinical heterogeneity in ARPKD remain incompletely understood, partly due to the fact that genotype-phenotype correlations have been limited to the association of biallelic null variants in PKHD1 with the most severe phenotypes.

Renal Cell Carcinoma and Kidney Transplantation: A Narrative Review.

Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) are at increased risk of developing renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The cancer can be encountered at different steps in the transplant process. RCC found during work-up of a transplant candidate needs treatment and to limit the risk of recurrence usually a mandatory observation period before transplantation is recommended.

Spontaneous renal hemorrhage in acquired cystic kidney disease.

We performed computed tomography every year and pointed out the development of kidney atrophy and a cystic lesion in relation to prolonged hemodialysis, which may be cause of spontaneous renal hemorrhage.

Renal Cell Carcinoma on the Native Kidney Following Kidney Transplantation.

A 48-year-old man with histories of IgA nephropathy for 33 years, hemodialysis for 29 years, and a kidney transplant from a deceased donor 5 years ago was admitted to our institute complaining of high fever and back pain. Although repeated follow-up of computed tomography failed to detect any de novo issues, he was eventually diagnosed as a renal cell carcinoma with multiple metastases, developing from his native-acquired cystic disease kidney with multiple cysts using a positron emission tomography. We should be cautious of de novo renal cell carcinoma in kidney transplantation recipients, and careful follow-up might be helpful to detect it.

New developments in existing WHO entities and evolving molecular concepts: The Genitourinary Pathology Society (GUPS) update on renal neoplasia.

The Genitourinary Pathology Society (GUPS) reviewed recent advances in renal neoplasia, particularly post-2016 World Health Organization (WHO) classification, to provide an update on existing entities, including diagnostic criteria, molecular correlates, and updated nomenclature. Key prognostic features for clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remain WHO/ISUP grade, AJCC/pTNM stage, coagulative necrosis, and rhabdoid and sarcomatoid differentiation. Accrual of subclonal genetic alterations in clear cell RCC including SETD2, PBRM1, BAP1, loss of chromosome 14q and 9p are associated with variable prognosis, patterns of metastasis, and vulnerability to therapies.
