Polycystic liver disease

02/01/2008 - "The goal of this study was to compare the clinical features of patients with isolated polycystic liver disease (PCLD) with those of patients with polycystic liver and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). "
05/01/2015 - "We included 43 ADPKD patients with polycystic liver disease (84% female, median age 50 years, mean eGFR 63 ml/min/1.73 m(2) ). "
08/01/2014 - "Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease is frequently complicated by polycystic liver disease. "
06/01/2014 - "Hepatic transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) has become an accepted treatment option for patients with symptomatic autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) who also have polycystic liver disease and who are not good candidates for surgery. "
04/08/2014 - "Polycystic livers are seen in the rare inherited disorder isolated polycystic liver disease (PCLD) and are recognized as the most common extrarenal manifestation in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. "

12/01/2014 - "In all three periods analysed, the laparoscopic approach showed a statistically significant reduction in operative time (p = 0.009) and hospital stay (p = 0.001) and a significant (p < 0.05) reduction rate in symptomatic recurrences in patients with polycystic liver disease (25 %) as compared with simple liver cysts (7.5 %). "
12/01/2009 - "The study included 13 patients (11 with polycystic liver disease, two with simple cysts) with 17 cysts. "
01/01/2006 - "The aim of this study was to evaluate the postoperative morbidity and, in the medium-term results, the incidence of relapses in the laparoscopic treatment of non-parasitic hepatic cysts (NPHC) and polycystic liver disease (PCLD). "
10/01/2005 - "This study describes the natural history of patients with polycystic liver disease, a rare disorder characterized by multiple hepatic cysts. "
10/01/2002 - "The present study confirms that with adequate patients election, long-term alleviation of symptoms can be achieved with the laparoscopic approach for solitary simple liver cysts but not for polycystic liver disease or cystic tumours of the liver."

11/01/2008 - "We designed this study with the specific aim to dissect whether pathways involved in polycystic kidney diseases are also implicated in polycystic liver disease. "
07/01/2008 - "This report describes four cases with polycystic kidney disease with or without liver involvement and one case with polycystic liver disease with corroborative radiological studies."
03/01/2010 - "Polycystic liver disease (PCLD) without polycystic kidney is infrequent in clinical setting. "
01/01/2010 - "Severe polycystic liver disease can complicate adult dominant polycystic kidney disease, a genetic disease caused by defects in polycystin-1 (Pkd1) or polycystin-2 (Pkd2). "
11/01/2005 - "Adult polycystic liver disease (APLD) is an autosomal dominant condition most commonly associated with polycystic kidney disease. "

12/01/2009 - "This initial experience with a single session of percutaneous aspiration and ethanolamine oleate sclerosis resulted in sustained resolution of symptomatic polycystic liver disease with minimal morbidity, avoidance of surgery, and improvement in quality of life."
12/01/2009 - "The purpose of this study was to evaluate percutaneous aspiration with ethanolamine oleate sclerosis in the management of symptomatic polycystic liver disease. "
09/01/1994 - "Alcohol sclerosis for polycystic liver disease and obstructive jaundice: use of a nasobiliary catheter."
07/01/1993 - "Percutaneous sclerosis of hepatic cysts to treat obstructive jaundice in a patient with polycystic liver disease."

08/01/2005 - "Polycystic liver disease may require surgery when massive hepatomegaly results in pain or a worsening of the patient's general condition. "
03/01/1996 - "The mean diameter of the remaining 49 cysts decreased from 9 cm to 3 cm. At the last follow-up visit, 14 patients were asymptomatic, four had milder epigastric pain than before the treatment, and seven with polycystic liver disease had recurrent symptoms due to growth of nontreated cysts. "
01/01/1986 - "Adult polycystic liver disease (10 patients) presented later (43 +/- 3 years) in females (90%) with pain, a mass or incidentally; polycystic kidneys were present in 33%. "
01/01/2015 - "A 49-year-old Japanese woman with polycystic liver disease (PLD) was admitted for right hypochondrial pain. "
03/01/1999 - "The same procedure was also used for 3/17 symptomatic patients affected by polycystic liver disease in order to give temporary relief of the symptoms due to compression (pain, dyspnea, vomit, jaundice). "
