Complications of polycystic kidney disease
A 33-year-old white man first presented to the Royal Infirmary Stirling, Scotland, 24 years ago with a history of recent-onset hematuria. Intravenous urography at that time showed a filling defect in the right kidney; a subsequent aortogram demonstrated a single simple cyst in the right kidney.

Rare Combination of Phenotypes of Karyomegalic Interstitial Nephritis and Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease in an Omani Child. [PDF]
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease is one of the most prevalent inherited cystic kidney diseases in infants and children, common in highly consanguineous societies such as Oman. Karyomegalic interstitial nephritis is a rare cause of hereditary
