“…Complications are uncommon and include bleeding, rupture and infection of cysts [31] . The most severe complication is bacterial infection, especially those under dialysis for ADPKD or in immunosuppressed patients after renal transplantation [32][33][34][35][36][37] . This is usually managed with aspiration and drainage, and antibiotics.…”

“…4,5 Percutaneous treatments, such as cyst drainage, are less invasive than surgical resection and have become a mainstay of treatment; however, in cases of PCLD where numerous small cysts have accumulated (as in the present case) drainage is ineffective in alleviating symptoms. 6 Transcatheter arterial embolization, which makes it possible to reduce the size of the liver overall, is generally used in most clinics and hospitals.…”

“…6 Transcatheter arterial embolization, which makes it possible to reduce the size of the liver overall, is generally used in most clinics and hospitals. 5 A coil or a liquid embolic material, such as NBCA, has been used as the embolic materials, but the use of a coil alone may result in proximal embolization and fail to achieve adequate reduction in liver size. 7 N-butyl cyanoacrylate, on the other hand, allows adequate embolization as far as the periphery.…”
