Abstract:
Our 31-year-old patient, with no notable pathological antecedents, in particular no family history of renal anomalies, G2P1 (a child with good psychomotor development), consulted for a pregnancy follow-up. The course of the pregnancy was unremarkable, and the gestational age was estimated at 27 SA.
Obstetrical ultrasound revealed the following on sagittal section: large homogeneous hyperechoic kidneys (+4 D.S), with loss of cortico-medullary differentiation, small cysts in the medullary region, bladder not visualized, with oligohydramnios. Morphological ultrasound showed no associated fetal malformation, so the diagnosis of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease was suspected. Ultrasound monitoring was performed every 3 weeks, showing decrease in the quantity of amniotic fluid.
