Abstract:

To determine the prevalence of acquired cystic kidney disease in end-stage renal disease patients on hemodialysis. Study Design: Cross-sectional study Place and Duration of Study: This study was conducted at the Nephrology Department, Khyber teaching hospital, Peshawar from July 2021 to January 2022, for a period of seven months. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 124 subjects fulfilling the inclusion criteria for end stage renal disease. The patients were sent to radiology department for the diagnosis of acquired cystic kidney disease using ultrasonography by an expert radiologist. All subjects information was stored and analyzed using IBM SPSS 20. Variables like gender, age, duration of hemodialysis was stratified with acquired cystic kidney disease. Chi Square test was used for association. Results: This study was conducted on 124 patients presented with end stage renal disease. The mean age of the subjects was 38.63±16.81 years. There number of males were 81 (65.3%) and females were 43 (34.7%). The prevalence of acquired cystic kidney disease was 17.7%. There was no significant difference between gender and acquired cystic kidney disease ACKD (P > 0.05). A significant difference was observed (P < 0.05) between age groups and acquired cystic kidney disease. A total of 8 (10.3%) subjects had acquired cystic kidney disease in the age range of 18-35 years, while in the age range of 36-75 years; a total of 14 (30.4%) subjects had acquired cystic kidney disease. Significant difference (P < 0.05) was found between acquired cystic kidney disease and the duration of hemodialysis. Conclusion: In our study the prevalence of 17.7% was recorded for ACKD among the subjects of ESRD. There was a significant relationship between the age and hemodialysis duration with ACKD.
