A 6-year-old Persian cat was determined to have polycystic kidney disease (PKD). Because of 3 previous clinical reports of PKD in Persian cats, the offspring were examined by use of ultrasonography, which provided evidence of PKD in 3 of the 4 offspring. Because of the genetic transmission of this disease, breeders should be advised not to breed PKD-positive Persian cats.
一只6岁的波斯猫被诊断患有多囊肾病（PKD）。由于之前有3份关于波斯猫PKD的临床报告，对其后代进行了超声检查，结果显示4只后代中有3只患有PKD。鉴于这种疾病的遗传特性，应建议繁育者不要繁育PKD呈阳性的波斯猫。
