    Author: Thaysen JH, Christensen E, Alarcon-Zurita A, Movild B.
    Journal: Acta Med Scand; 1975 Apr; 197(4):257-60. PubMed ID: 1094807.
    Abstract:
    Following institution of chronic dialysis and/or renal transplantation for terminal uremia, four consecutive patients observed for 15-48 months with their polycystic kidneys in situ invariably showed a rapid relief of symptoms (pain, hematuria) followed by a gradual, but steady, involution of the kidneys. The mechanism and the practical clinical implications are discussed.
