1、CYSTIC KIDNEYS多囊性肾脏病变 Cystic disease of the kidneys in childhood isa confusing and complicated subject.Also thecomplex and often contradictory nomenclatureused to describe cystic kidneys is not an aid tounderstanding the subject.This section aims toprovide the sonographer with a simpleapproach to cy

2、stic kidneys in children.多囊性肾脏病变 Multicystic kidney or multicystic dysplastic kidneythis refers to many cysts in one kidney often containing some dysplastic elements.Not all multicystic kidneys are dysplastic.The condition is still considered to be non-hereditary.If the multicystic kidney is unilate

3、ral,the other kidney may be normal,hydronephrotic or dysplastic.If bilateral,it is incompatible with life,and infants die soon after birth with hypoplastic lungs and/or renal failure.Terminology多囊性肾脏病变 Cystic dysplasiadysplastic kidneys can be unilateral or bilateral,usually contain cysts and are di

4、sorganized,containing ectopic tissue such as cartilage and muscle.They may function.Ultrasonically they usually appear small and echogenic with small peripheral cortical cysts.While dysplastic kidneys are often hypoplastic,not all small kidneys are dysplastic.The clinical features are very variable

5、from a normal appearing neonate to a very dysmorphic infant.Dysplastic kidneys are associated with urinary tract obstruction,and many syndromes are associated with cystic dysplastic kidneys.Bilateral renal dysplasia will result in progressive renal failure.多囊性肾脏病变 Polycystic kidney disease refers to

6、 two conditions:autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease and autosomal dominant renal disease.多囊性肾脏病变 Autosomal recessive polycystic kidneys were previously known as infantile polycystic kidneys.Confusingly these kidneys appear highly echogenic on ultrasound.There is generalized dilation of the

7、 collecting tubules.Autosomal dominant renal disease was previously known as adult polycystic kidney disease.Cysts develop anywhere along the nephron.多囊性肾脏病变 The ultimate diagnosis of the cysticrenal disorder is not dependent on anyone imaging modality and will depend onmany factors.Sources of infor

8、mation whentrying to come to the diagnosis should becollated from many areas,such as:多囊性肾脏病变 obstetric history of the mother prenatal history and fetal ultrasonography family history information clinical examination of the child radiology of patient and parents laboratory data,for example DNA pathol

9、ogy if a biopsy is taken or fromany other family members that may havehad a biopsy or nephrectomy in the past.多囊性肾脏病变 Ultrasound is still the imaging modalityof choice in children,and the findings onultrasound will direct further imaging asrequired.The ultrasound approach to anycystic renal disease

10、in children mustinclude observations about the following,which should be carefully stated in theultrasound report.多囊性肾脏病变 unilateral or bilateral renal cysts(bilateralinvolvement is more common in the geneticallyinherited conditions)size of the kidneysare they large or small?localization to one part

11、 of the kidney or diffuseinvolvement of the whole kidney.Is there acapsule around the cysts?extrarenal cysts,in particular in the liver orpancreas liver size and hepatic parenchyma appearance presence of a large spleen and portalhypertension.多囊性肾脏病变 Renal cysts are common and may behereditary,develo

12、pmental or acquired.Theclassification of cystic renal disease variesaccording to the perspective from which it iswritten,and despite a vast amount ofliterature on the subject,there is still nogenerally accepted classification in existence.The early Potter classification is of limitedvalue for clinic

13、al practice because not all typesrepresent clinical entities.多囊性肾脏病变 The following classification is by nomeans all inclusive but aims to emphasizethe important clinical cystic disorders likelyto be encountered by the sonographer.Broadly speaking,cystic disease of thekidneys can be divided into two

16、 the renalcollecting tubules so that the kidneys are packedto a greater or lesser degree with tiny little cysts(Fig.3.31).It is much rarer than the autosomaldominant form and occurs in 1 in 50 000 people.Prenatal diagnosis can be made but there arefalse positive and false negative diagnoses.Congenit

18、s with their posterior acoustic enhancement which give the hyperechogenic appearances on ultrasound.(BD)Sonograms of the kidney in three patients with ARPKD to demonstrate the wide variation in appearance.The kidneys are all large,over the 95th centile,and are globally hyperechoic.The visible cysts

19、are generally small,rarely exceeding 2 cm.Sometimes the increase in echogenicity is primarily medullary.ABCD多囊性肾脏病变 There are two types of presentation of ARPKDdepending on the age of the patient and the dominance of the renal or the hepatic disease.In those children who present at birth or during t

20、he neonatal period the renal disease dominates,while in those who present later in childhood or adolescence the liver disease dominates,with much milder renal manifestations.The hepatic disease in these children is called congenital hepatic fibrosis with renal tubular ectasia and comes to medical at

21、tention because of theproblems associated with hepatic fibrosis,such as splenomegaly,portal hypertension,varices and bleeding.多囊性肾脏病变 Gross cystic dilation of the intrahepaticbiliary tree is usually called Caroli syndrome.The original description was purely of thehepatic disease,but dilation of the

22、bile ductsis seen in early presenting ARPKD and in themilder end of the renal spectrum of renal tubularectasia.The risk for a sibling of having thiscondition is 25%,and the parents kidneysshould be normal.多囊性肾脏病变Sonographic Appearances There is a wide spectrum of appearances frombirth and with incre

23、asing age throughout childhood.There is bilateral equal involvement of the kidneys,and the reniform shape is usually maintained.The kidneys must be big and are generally overthe 90th centile for age in the young.With increasingage and progression of the renal disease,fibrosis mayresult in stabilizat

24、ion and comparative decrease inthe renal size.多囊性肾脏病变 The inhomogeneous global increase inecho texture is due to the myriad ofmicrocysts presenting multiple acousticinterfaces.In some a subcapsular rim of normalhypoechoic cortex is diagnostic.Medullary pyramids may be hypoechoic atbirth in some less

25、 severely affected but overtime become hyperechoic.In older childrenthe corticomedullary differentiation is usuallylost.多囊性肾脏病变 Visible macrocysts are uncommon butcan be seen,and they are generally nomore than 12 cm in diameter.Theybecome more common with age.Hepatic fibrosis is always present.Thehe

26、patic echo texture may be normalbut,with increasing fibrosis,will becomecoarse and increased particularly in theperiportal region.多囊性肾脏病变Figure 3.32 Dilated bile ducts in autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease(ARPKD).Longitudinal sonogram of the liver showing the dilated cystic spaces.These a

27、re not cysts but dilations of the bile ducts.The liver should always be carefully examined in all children suspected of having ARPKD.The liver must be carefully examined for lesions which are cystic dilations of the biliary tree.The hepatic cystic lesions are not true cysts but rather out-pouchings

28、of the bile ducts(Fig.3.32).多囊性肾脏病变 In older children,because of the hepaticfibrosis and liver disease,portalhypertension may be present.Evidence ofportal hypertension with an enlargedspleen and varices must be sought.Doppler examination of the liver,spleenand portal system is an essential part ofth

29、e examination in these children.多囊性肾脏病变Further imaging When the child is older and over theneonatal period,an IVU is performed.This willdemonstrate the streaky radiating pattern ofcontrast which is almost pathognomonic ofARPKD(Fig.3.33).The importance of doingthis examination is that in showing thec

30、aliceal pattern it will help exclude othercauses of large echogenic kidneys in theneonatal period,such as dysplasia.多囊性肾脏病变ABFigure 3.33 Intravenous urogram(IVU)in autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease(ARPKD).(A)&(B)Two examples of the IVU appearances of ARPKD.The urogram should always be pe

31、rformed to demonstrate the caliceal pattern.This will demonstrate the typical radiating appearance of the contrast as it passes through the collecting system and help differentiate the dysplastic bright kidneys.多囊性肾脏病变 A hepatic iminodiacetic acid(HIDA)scanshould be performed at about 1 year of age.

32、If performed too early the HIDA scan will benormal but,if delayed,the effects of thehepatic fibrosis will have had time to manifest.This involves a radioisotope tracer excreted inthe bile and will demonstrate accumulation andstasis of isotope in the cystic areas and delayedclearance from the abnorma
