Multicystic Dysplastic Kidney (MDCK) is a non-heritable developmental disorder where the kidney is replaced by non-functioning cysts. It is usually unilateral and asymptomatic, though it can present as an abdominal mass. Imaging such as ultrasound is used for diagnosis and shows cysts of varying sizes replacing normal renal architecture with no communication between cysts. Treatment involves follow up monitoring, with nephrectomy in some cases of hypertension or massive enlargement. Differential diagnosis includes other cystic kidney diseases and tumors.

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a genetic disorder that causes fluid-filled sacs, called cysts, to form in the kidneys. These cysts can grow over time and interfere with the kidney's ability to function properly. PKD can lead to chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD), which may require dialysis or a kidney transplant.
There are two types of PKD: autosomal dominant PKD (ADPKD) and autosomal recessive PKD (ARPKD). ADPKD is the most common form and usually develops in adulthood, while ARPKD is a rarer form that usually develops in infancy or childhood.
Symptoms of PKD can include high blood pressure, back or abdominal pain, headaches, urinary tract infections, and blood in the urine. However, many people with PKD may not experience symptoms until later stages of the disease.
There is no cure for PKD, but treatment options can help manage symptoms and slow the progression of the disease. These may include blood pressure medication, pain management, antibiotics for infections, and lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet and exercise. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to remove a large cyst or to transplant a new kidney.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Microteaching is a unique model of practice teaching. It is a viable instrument for the. desired change in the teaching behavior or the behavior potential which, in specified types of real. classroom situations, tends to facilitate the achievement of specified types of objectives.
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
3. Introduction
• Multicystic Dysplastic Kidney (MDCK) is a type of non-heritable
developmental disorder in which the kidney is replaced by non-
functioning non-communicating cysts.
• It is the most common form of cystic disease in infants.
• Usually unilateral, asymptomatic or present as abdominal mass.
• Can be diagnosed in-utero or in neonate through USS.
• If unilateral, chances of complete resolution in 60%.
• Bilateral disease is fatal.
3
4. Epidemiology
• Most common form of cystic disease in infants.
• 2nd most common cause of an abdominal mass in neonate (after
hydronephrosis).
• Unilateral incidence is estimated at 1:2500-4000.
• Prevalence: 1:4,300 (for unilateral MCDK), 1:10,000 (for bilateral MCDK) LB
• M:F = 2:1 (for unilateral MCDK).
• More common among infants of diabetic mothers.
• Risk of recurrence: 2–3%
• Genetics: sporadic NOT familial .Rarely autosomal dominant forms are seen
4
5. Aetiopathology
• Aetiology is said to be due to obstruction / atresia of ureter during
metanephric stage before 8–10 weeks GA.
• This inhibits nephron development – as a result the collecting tubules
enlarge into cysts with the formation of immature glomeruli and
tubules.
• Hence, the affected kidney (or renal segment) has no functioning
renal tissue and is replaced by multiple cysts.
5
6. Aetiopathology
• Location
1. Unilateral
• Most common form (80–90%); L:R = 2:1
• Caused by pelvoinfundibular atresia.
• In 33% associated with contralateral kidney abnormal: VUR, PUJO, Horseshoe
kidney, Ureteral anomalies, Renal hypoplasia, Megaloureter, Malrotation,
Renal agenesis.
• Also associated with anomalies of the ipsilateral kidney: VUR, Ectopic ureter
6
7. Aetiopathology
• Location
2. Segmental / Focal renal dysplasia
• “Multilocular cyst” secondary to:
- High-grade obstruction of upper pole moiety in duplex kidney from ectopic
ureterocoele
- Single obstructed infundibulum
3. Bilateral cystic dysplasia
• In the presence of severe obstruction in utero from PUV / urethra atresia
• With oligohydramnios + pulmonary hypoplasia
• Prognosis: lethal
7
8. Aetiopathology
• Potter Types
1. Multicystic kidney (Potter IIa)
• Large kidney with multiple large cysts + little visible renal parenchyma
2. Hypoplastic / diminutive form (Potter IIb)
• Echogenic small kidney
8
9. Aetiopathology
• Time of appearance:
A. Related to Site of Obstruction
• Ureteropelvic junction: single / several large / multiple medium-sized cysts in
large kidney
• Distal ureter / urethra: small / no cysts in small kidney
B. Related to Time of Insult
• Early onset between 8th and 11th week
- Small / atretic renal pelvis + calices
- 10–20 cysts + loss of reniform appearance
• Late onset = Hydronephrotic Form
- Large central cyst (= dilated pelvis) often communicating with cysts
- Some renal function may be demonstrated
9
10. Clinical Features
• Asymptomatic if unilateral (may go undetected until adulthood).
• Abdominal mass.
• Recurrent urinary tract infections, intermittent abdominal pain,
nausea + vomiting, haematuria, failure to thrive.
• Fatal form: bilateral MCDK (4.5–21%), contralateral renal agenesis (0–
11%).
• Pulmonary hypoplasia if bilateral → fatal
10
11. Radiologic Features
• Best described using the following imaging modalities:
- Ultrasonography
- MRI
- Nuclear Medicine
- Radiography (Plain/ Contrast Study)
- Angiography
11
12. Radiologic Features - Ultrasonography
• It is the preferred initial examination.
• Prenatal USS has been shown to have a diagnostic accuracy of > 90%.
• Can provides clues of other urinary tract anomalies.
• Findings:
- Normal renal architecture replaced by:
• Random cysts of varying shape + size (“cluster of grapes”) with largest cyst in periphery
→ lobulated renal contour.
• Non-medial location (100% accurate)
• Cysts separated by septa (100% accurate)
• No communication between multiple cysts (93% accurate)
• Cysts begin to disappear in infancy.
12
13. Radiologic Features - Ultrasonography
• Findings(contd.)
- Central sinus complex absent (100% accurate).
- No identification of parenchymal rim or corticomedullary differentiation (74%
accurate).
- Hypoplastic and echogenic atophic kidney (Potter IIb).
- Hydronephrotic form
- Oligohydramnios in bilateral MCDK / unilateral MCDK + contralateral urinary
obstruction with absence of a visible bladder.
13
19. Radiologic Features - MRI
• The non-ionizing radiation imaging modality is an important
consideration in the paediatric population.
• MCDK cysts are eloquently demonstrated on T2 sequences – seen as
multiple non-communicating hyperintense structures.
• It show the typical multicystic appearance of MCDK with little or no
renal parenchyma.
19
22. Radiologic Features – Nuclear Medicine
• NUC preferred over IVP in first month of life as concentrating ability of
even normal neonatal kidneys is suboptimal.
• Help differentiates between MCDK & hydronephrosis ( mild & mod.)
• Uses the radiotracer 99mTc-MAG 3 or DTPA.
• Finding:
- Generally, no function/uptake seen in the renal bed of the affected side.
- May show some flow to the kidney and possible cortical uptake
- Excretion is never seen.
• DDx: severe hydronephrosis (peripheral activity), PUJ obstruction
(minimal uptake)
22
24. Radiologic Features – Radiography
• Incidental findings on kidney, ureter, and bladder (KUB) images
include displacement of the bowels when the affected kidney is
enlarged.
• Also, ringlike calcifications of the cyst walls may be seen on plain
images.
• Retrograde pyelography may demonstrate an atretic or absent ureter.
• VCUG may be indicated in pxs with MCDK to evaluate the urinary
tract for VUR and other anomalies, including an ipsilateral
ureterocoele.
24
26. Radiologic Features – Angiography
• It shows absent / hypoplastic renal artery;
• Angiography not usually necessary since a DDx to long-standing
functionless kidney is not possible
26
27. Treatment
• OB management:
- Routine antenatal care + evaluation by paediatric urologist following delivery if
unilateral
- Option of pregnancy termination if ≤ 24 weeks GA
- Non-intervention for foetal distress if > 24 weeks GA
• Complications
- Renin-dependent hypertension (rare)
- Malignancy in < 1:330
• Treatment:
- Follow-up in 3–4month intervals in first year (isolated reports of developing
malignancy)
- Nephrectomy (in hypertension / massive renal enlargement)
- Assessment of contralateral kidney for VUR
27
29. Differential Diagnosis – Obstructive Cystic
Renal Dysplasia
• Potter type IV cystic renal disease
• Kidneys are usually normal to
small
• Highly echogenic cortices, loss of
cortico-medullary differentiation,
and scattered cysts (usually
smaller than those seen with
MCDK).
• The reniform shape is often
preserved until late in the
disease.
29
30. Differential Diagnosis – ARPKD
• Potter type I cystic renal disease.
• Inherited
• Numerous cylindrical cysts in the
cortex and medulla on high
resolution probe.
• Initially cysts too small to resolve
• Affects both kidneys with
associated hepatic fibrosis
• kidneys appear enlarged and
echogenic but usually, retain a
reniform shape.
30
31. Differential Diagnosis – ADPKD
• Potter type III.
• Inherited
• Usually present in adulthood –
normal kidney at birth.
• Affects both kidneys +/- cysts in
liver, spleen, pancreas, ovaries
and seminal vesicles.
• Usual appearance as multiple
simple cysts of varying sizes and
shades in the cortex and medulla
31
32. Differential Diagnosis – Paediatric cystic
nephroma
• Unifocal multiloculated cystic
masses surrounded by a thick
fibrous capsule and compressed
parenchyma.
• Claw or beak-shape of adjacent
renal parenchyma (claw sign).
• Cyst contents are usually
anechoic, but low-level echoes
may be seen.
• Septal vascularity can also be
seen.
