Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is probably the common human disorder inherited by an autosomal dominant mechanism with worldwide prevalence of 1 out of 500-1,000 individuals. Progressive decline in renal function is usual. Approximately 50 percent of ADPKD develops into ESRD by age of 60. However, developed ESRD is rare before age of 30. We experienced a case of ESRD caused by ADPKD. The patient is a 17-year-old male mainly complaining of known fatigue and general weakness. Clinical manifestations, laboratory data, ultrasonogram, abdominal CT scanning and pathologic findings of the kidney diagnosed it. A review of literatures was also briefly presented.

BACKGROUND: Acute renal failure(ARF) is a serious complication of rhabdomyolysis after multiple trauma, and may increase morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to elucidate predicting factors for the development of ARF induced by rhabdomyolysis at an early stage of multiple trauma. METHODS: This prospective, observational study was conducted at the emergency department of a level I trauma center. Patients with acute multiple trauma, whose plasma levels of creatine phosphokinase(CPK) were higher than 1,000 IU, were included in this study. We excluded patients with any history of myocardial infarction, stroke, underlying renal disease, and/or infectious disease. We collected clinical and laboratory data including age, heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure, injury severity score, serum myoglobin, lactic dehydrogenase, creatine phosphokinase, and base excess. Collected data were compared between patients who had ARF and patients who did not have ARF. RESULTS: Eighty-eight patients were enrolled in this study. Eighteen patients(20.5%) developed ARF. The injury severity score(ISS)(p=0.001), the base excess(p<0.001), CPK(p=0.003), and myoglobin(p<0.001) were higher in patients with ARF than in patient without ARF. Logistic regression analysis revealed that early predictors for ARF were high ISS, high base excess, high CPK, and high myoglobin. CONCLUSION: We could identify early predicting factors for acute renal failure induced by rhabdomyolysis, these factors included ISS, serum CPK and myoglobin, and base excess in the arterial blood gas analysis performed at the emergency department.
