Hereditary Kidney Disorders

Some kidney diseases result from genetic factors. Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), for example, is a genetic disorder in which many cysts grow in the kidneys. PKD cysts can slowly switch much. Some kidney complications may show up even before birth. Examples contain autosomal receding PKD, a rare form of PKD, and other developing problems that interfere with the normal formation of the nephrons. The signs of kidney disease in children vary. A child may grow remarkably slowly, may vomit frequently, or may have back or side pain.
