Multicenter Insights into Peritoneal Dialysis for Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease

Le résumé fourni par la source

Key Points This study demonstrates that peritoneal dialysis is a safe and feasible option for patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, even with high cystic organ volumes. Larger organ volumes, including height-adjusted cumulative kidney and liver volume, were not associated with increased peritoneal dialysis–related complications. Background Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most prevalent genetic kidney disorder and the fourth leading cause of kidney failure. Peritoneal dialysis (PD), preferred for its home-based convenience and cost-effectiveness, is often underutilized in ADPKD because of concerns over enlarged kidneys and heightened risk of complications. Methods This retrospective cohort study used data from the Mayo Clinic Polycystic Kidney Disease Database to evaluate individuals with ADPKD undergoing PD. We analyzed demographics, clinical parameters, and PD-related parameters. Complications were correlated with kidney and liver volumes derived from pre-kidney failure imaging. Results A total of 155 individuals with ADPKD on PD were included, of whom 45.1% were male. The mean age at PD initiation was 54.3±12.8 years, and the mean body mass index was 28.0±7.0 kg/m 2 . The median duration of PD was 24.3 months (interquartile range [IQR], 10.7–43.1), with 21.9% transitioning to hemodialysis. The most common complications were abdominal hernias (30.3%) and peritonitis (23.9%), with a peritonitis rate of 0.11 episodes per patient-year. Imaging analyses performed on a subset of 50 patients showed a median height-adjusted total kidney liver volume of 2731.9 ml/m (IQR, 2102.5–3131.1) and a median height-adjusted total kidney volume of 1303.5 ml/m (IQR, 733.1–1829.4). Kaplan–Meier analysis demonstrated no differences in complications rates on the basis of height-adjusted total kidney liver volume or height-adjusted total kidney volume (above versus below median values) or body mass index categories. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that higher height-adjusted cumulative organ volume was associated with a lower risk of PD-related complications (hazard ratio=0.56, P = 0.026). Conclusions PD is a safe and feasible treatment option for patients with ADPKD, with no increased risk of PD-related complications associated with larger height-adjusted cumulative organ volumes. Infectious complication rates in this cohort were within International Society of Peritoneal Dialysis guideline thresholds, further supporting the safety of PD in this population.
