Multicystic dysplastic disease of kidney in pediatric age group: A series of five cases

Multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) is a congenital somatic maldevelopment in which the renal cortex is replaced by numerous cysts of varying sizes with insinuating dysplastic parenchyma in between.

description Multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) is a congenital somatic maldevelopment in which the renal cortex is replaced by numerous cysts of varying sizes with insinuating dysplastic parenchyma in between. In 76% of cases, it is unilateral occurring on the left kidney. The condition could be diagnosed by ultrasound during pregnancy or after delivery. According to various studies, it follows a benign course and can be managed conservatively. Here, we present a series of five cases of unilateral MCDK that required surgical management due to either parent's psychosocial constraints or incidental discovery during surgery.
