Abstract

Multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) is a congenital kidney abnormality with an overall incidence rate of 1/4300 live births that is more prevalent in males than females. Here, we describe a rare case of bilateral MCDK complicated by hypertension, severe vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), and urinary tract infection (UTI), who stabilized during hospitalization with prospective kidney transplantation due to poor prognosis. Since bilateral MCDK is a rare disease with numerous complications and a poor prognosis, patient symptom management and treatment may be more challenging.
