Answer:

PKD- Polycystic kidney disease

Explanation:

  • Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is an inherited disease in which there is a structural abnormality of the renal tubules of the kidney which results in the formation and the growth of multiple large, fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys.
  • The effect of this disease can be shown at any stage of the development, be it during the infancy or adult stage or in utero.
  • These cysts are nothing but the renal tubules that have become nonfunctional and are filled with fluid.
  • The disease can manifest itself in either autosomal recessive or dominant form and it involves mutations in the genes such as PKD2, PKD1, etc.
