Can hereditary Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) be treated effectively? This
is a problem that many patients are quite concerned about. In terms of present
medical level, people have no method to solve the hereditary problems yet. So
for the treatment of PKD, we can only control the continuously increasing cysts,
shrink the cysts and make the illness condition more stable. As long as the
illness can be controlled well, patients can live a normal life and do the work
as usual. So PKD patients don’t need to worry a lot. PKD can be prevented and
treated.
Because the cortex and medulla of two sides’ kidneys are filled with many
thin-walled and spherical cysts, we name it polycystic kidney disease. PKD is a
kind of autosomal dominant inherited disease. The forming of PKD may be mainly
caused by the miss connection of collection tubule and distal convoluted tubule
of some nephrons in embryonic period. After the birth, new cysts won’t come out
while the existing one will grow continuously and look like a bunch of grapes.
There will be bright yellow liquid in capsule. However, when patients get wound
or infection, the liquid will present blood properties. Between cysts, there
will be some changes which can be normal parenchyma or chronic interstitial
nephritis.
After many years’ research and experiment, Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease
Hospital has established its characteristic treatment system. One of the
treatments is Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. This treatment not only can
shrink cysts but also aims at protecting renal function. Only shrinking cysts
and alleviating the pressure to renal parenchyma can improve the
hypoxia-ischemia condition of glomerular and block the process of renal
fibrosis, further prevent Uremia effectively.
The core technology of Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is to make the
effective prescriptions superfinely shattered. And then with the help of
effective penetrant and osmosis devices, the effective medicine can be permeated
into kidney lesions by external application. The utilization rate of medicine is
relatively high. The therapeutic principle of this treatment is mainly with
traditional Chinese medicine supplemented by western medicine. As for PKD
patients with severe complications like hypertension and anemia, in order to
make the traditional Chinese medicines play a better effect, it is important to
control some complications with using western medicines. However, this is not
enough. Patients should also pay attention to restoring renal intrinsic cells
and inhabiting the secretion of liquid.
Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can dilate cyst wall vessels and
accelerate the local blood circulation. While taking away the cyst fluid, the
capsular pressure can be lowered; the continuous secretion of epithelial cell of
cyst wall can be restrained, thus to reduce the production of cyst fluid. The
cysts will shrink, then we can achieve the goal of preventing the increase of
cysts and alleviating the damage on renal tissues.
