Two autosomal dominant polycystic kidney (ADPKD) cases with advanced renal dysfunction, effectively treated with tolvaptan

Abstract: We report here two cases of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) with renal dysfunction that were treated with tolvaptan. Case 1 was a 47-year-old man with a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of 17.0 ml/min/1.73 m 2 who received tolvaptan treatment (30 mg/day). After treatment, kidney pain was alleviated, and the estimated GFR (eGFR) decline improved from -9.84 ml/min/1.73 m 2 per year to -4.08 ml/min/1.73 m 2 per year, respectively. The rate of increase in total kidney volume was reduced from 1… Show more

“…The present study involved a retrospective investigation of tolvaptan treatment for ADPKD in real clinical practice at a single institution. There have been two previous reports about such treatment in a real-world setting (16,17), and there has been only one study involving more than 10 cases (17). Therefore, we proudly declare that this study is very valuable.…”
