It is normal for patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease to find their urine
color appears to be red. Red urine which is called hematuria in clinic is one of
the dominant symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease. Hematuria refers to the
abnormal increase of red cells in urine, then how do these red cells get into
patients’ urine?
For patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease, there are mainly two causes for
them to have hematuria.
Can a Kidney Cyst Cause Gross Hematuria With No Pain
hematuriaCause one: hematuria arises from poor blood circulation in kidney.
Poor circulation in kidney can cause renal ischemia. We know renal ischemia is
the root cause of kidney damage. When renal intrinsic cells are damaged, renal
filtration function will be impaired and as a result, red cells which should
have been prevented from leaking out by glomerular filtration membrane can not
be prevented any more. Red cells leaked out get into urine and then urine
appears to be red.
Cause two: hematuria can result from fracture of blood vessels. For patients
with Polycystic Kidney Disease, due to the enlargement of their cysts, renal
tissues and blood vessels around cyst are pressed greatly, leading to the damage
of endothelial cells in renal blood capillary. Consequently, with more and more
blood capillary are damaged, hematuria appears.
What Is the Relevance of Parapelvic Cyst with Large Hematuria
These are the major processes how red cells get into urine. For patients with
Polycystic Kidney Disease, if they want to relieve hematuria, the root solution
is to shrink cyst and then repair damaged renal intrinsic cells. We all know
there are no effective solutions in western countries; however, in China there
is an effective treatment, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, for patients to
adopt. What is more, patients with Polycystic Kidney Disease indeed receive
satisfactory treatment effects.
Treatment for End Stage PKD, Anemia and Hematuria
Although hematuria is just a symptom of Polycystic Kidney Disease, it also
cause aggravation of this disease, therefore, receiving effective treatment
timely is the best solution for patients to live full life again.
