From 1976 to 1982 five patients undergoing haemodialysis at Oxford Renal Unit suffered serious complications from acquired cystic disease of the kidney and two died as a direct result. Clinical features seen were pain, haematuria, palpable renal enlargement, massive haemorrhage, resolution of anaemia, and metastatic malignancy. The clinical histories emphasise the features of a disease that is likely to assume increasing importance in patients undergoing haemodialysis.
1976年至1982年期间,牛津肾脏科接受血液透析的5名患者因获得性肾囊肿病出现严重并发症,其中2人直接死亡。所观察到的临床特征包括疼痛、血尿、可触及的肾脏肿大、大量出血、贫血症状缓解以及转移性恶性肿瘤。这些临床病史凸显了一种在接受血液透析的患者中可能变得越来越重要的疾病的特征。
