Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is probably the common human disorder inherited by an autosomal dominant mechanism with worldwide prevalence of 1 out of 500-1,000 individ- uals. Progressive decline in renal function is usual. Approximately 50 percent of ADPKD develops into ESRD by age of 60. However, developed ESRD is rare before age of 30. We experienced a case of ESRD caused by ADPKD. The patient is a 17-year- old male mainly complaining of known fatigue and general weakness. Clinical manifestations, laboratory data, ultrasonogram, abdominal CT scanning and pathologic findings of the kidney diagnosed it. A review of literatures was also briefly presented.
