Most reports on the natural history, manifestations, and treatment of polycystic liver disease are based on the disease as it manifests in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The purpose of this study was to develop a clinical profile of isolated autosomal dominant polycystic liver disease (ADPLD) using nonaffected family members as controls. The study included 146 probands, known affected relatives, and first‐degree relatives of affected individuals… 
Investigation of polycystic liver disease in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease using magnetic resonance imaging
TLDR
The incidence of polycystic liver disease in ADPKD patients was found to be high and the presence of PLD was not associated with the clinical findings of AD PKD, and it may be beneficial to perform liver imaging at the time of diagnosis and in their routine follow-up.
New Advances in Evaluation and Management of Patients with Polycystic Liver Disease
TLDR
In the symptomatic APLD patient, surgical therapy remains the mainstay of therapy and includes cyst aspiration and sclerosis, fenestration with and without hepatic resection and orthotopic liver transplantation, to include outcome measurements and complication rates.
Boy with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney and autosomal dominant polycystic liver disease
TLDR
The patient with AR PKD and PCLD has so far demonstrated a benign clinical outcome, consistent with the great phenotypic variability of ARPKD and, apart from the liver cyst, asymptomatic manifestation of PCLD in childhood.
Pathophysiology, epidemiology, classification and treatment options for polycystic liver diseases.
TLDR
The current knowledge of the pathophysiology, clinical course, diagnosis and treatment strategies of polycystic liver diseases are outlined.
Progress on Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease
TLDR
Current clinical trials investigating multiple therapeutic targets bring hope for treatments that may impede the progression of ADPKD.
Diagnosis and screening of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.
TLDR
Both DNA linkage or gene-based direct sequencing are now available for the diagnosis of ADPKD, especially in subjects with equivocal imaging results, subjects with a negative or indeterminate family history, or in younger at-risk individuals being evaluated as potential living-related kidney donors.

Clinical Correlates of Mass Effect in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease
TLDR
Moderate to severe PLD is a common and clinically important problem in ~16% of patients with ADPKD who may benefit from referral to specialized centers for further management.
Management of polycystic liver disease
The adult forms of polycystic liver disease are characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance and numerous hepatic cysts, with or without renal involvement. Mutations in two distinct genes
The Liver and Polycystic Kidney Disease
TLDR
The pathogenic sequence and genetic profile of PKD-associated liver cyst formation and progression is under extensive investigation, and therapeutic strategies to prevent and retard renal and liver cysts growth should be available in the near future.

The liver in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Implications for pathogenesis.
TLDR
Observations are consistent with the hypothesis that hepatic and renal cysts in ADPKD have similar pathogeneses, that BMHs and hepatic cysts result from hyperplasia of the bile duct epithelium, and that as they grow, the hepatic Cysts become disconnected from the biliary ducts from which they are derived.
Polycystic kidney disease. Morphological diagnosis of recessive and dominant polycystic kidney disease in infancy and childhood.
TLDR
The differential diagnosis between RPKD and DPKD can be based on kidney and liver histology, and all sporadic patients with satisfactory histological material could be classified asRPKD.

TLDR
Although only 2% of nephrons appear to be involved in cyst formation, the renal function often slowly deteriorates and patients with endstage renal disease respond to renal replacement therapy as well as other patient groups.
Polycystic kidney disease
TLDR
The differential diagnosis between RPKD and DPKD can be based on kidney and liver histology, and all sporadic patients with satisfactory histological material could be classified as RPKKD.
Liver cysts in autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease: clinical and computed tomographic study.
TLDR
Hepatic CT findings were analyzed in 44 patients with autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease and were correlated with liver and renal function tests and liver, splenic, and renal CT volume measurements, suggesting that portal hypertension is rarely associated with cystic liver disease.
Hepatobiliary cysts in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: prevalence and CT findings.
TLDR
Hepatobiliary cysts were noted in 56 of 64 patients and intrahepatic cysts varied widely in number, size, and location, whereas peribiliary Cysts were small and appeared as discrete Cysts, a string of cysts, or a tubular structure adjacent to the larger portal triad.
Identification of a locus for autosomal dominant polycystic liver disease, on chromosome 19p13.2-13.1.
TLDR
Identification of PCLD will be instrumental to an understanding of the pathogenesis of cyst formation in the liver in isolated PCLD and in ADPKD, where the pathogenetic mechanisms in the diseases are interrelated.
Isolated polycystic liver disease as a distinct genetic disease, unlinked to polycystic kidney disease 1 and polycystic kidney disease 2
TLDR
A family with definitely isolated PLD transmitted through three generations is described and the linkage of the disease to the genetic markers of PKD1 and PKD2, the two main loci responsible for ADPKD are excluded.
Risk factors for the development of hepatic cysts in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
TLDR
The hepatic expression of the autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease gene appears to be modulated by age, female gender, pregnancy, severity of the renal lesion and kidney function.
