Abstract
Cystic diseases of the kidney are some of the most significant monogenic causes of renal morbidity and mortality in both the pediatric and adult populations. There have been considerable advances in the past decade in identifying and characterizing the genes responsible for these disorders. The genetic aspects, molecular pathogenesis, clinical features, and management of these disorders will be highlighted in this chapter. Although cystic renal disease can be acquired, the primary aim of this chapter will be to focus on those forms that are inherited.
