Hydronephrosis Caused by Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is featured by numerous cysts growing on kidneys. If controlled, the cysts will enlarge gradually and cause a series of complications including hydronephrosis.

In PKD, with the enlargement of cysts, they are very likely to obstruct ureter. As a result, the urine can not be discharged normally resulting in hydronephrosis. As the cysts become bigger and bigger, the ureter will become more narrow. Hence, more and more urine will accumulate in pelvis, which can cause increased pressure in kidneys. Therefore, the renal functional cells will be impaired gradually causing renal function to decline. For the patients with PKD, they should not neglect the significant harm to kidneys.

Then how to treat hydronephrosis and eliminate the pressure to kidneys? Maybe some doctors will recommend the patients to remove the cysts by surgery. However, it is not a favorable choice for them. As the cyst is removed, the left small ones will grow up very soon and may obstruct ureter once again. Therefore, what should the patients with PKD to is to shrink the enlarged cysts and prevent the small ones from enlarging.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can help the patients with PKD along with hydronephrosis achieve the goal.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can inactivate the epithelial cells which secrete cystic fluid and cause cysts to enlarge. Once the epithelial cells loss secretion function, the cysts will stop growing up.

In terms of the enlarged cysts, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can improve the permeability of cyst wall, which can promote the reabsorption of cystic fluid. As a result, the cysts will shrink gradually and the pressure in kidneys will also decline.

Once the cysts shrink and the ureter obstruction is removed, the urine will be able to be discharged out of kidneys normally. Afterwards, hydronephrosis will also disappear.


Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy treats hydronephrosis in PKD from its cause so the patients can get a better therapeutic effect.
