Useful For

Providing a genetic evaluation for patients with a personal or family history suggestive of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease

 

Establishing a diagnosis of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease

Genetics Test Information

This test utilizes next-generation sequencing to detect single nucleotide, small deletion-insertion, and copy number variants in 8 genes associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD): ALG8, ALG9, DNAJB11, GANAB, HNF1B, PKD1, PKD2, UMOD. See Targeted Genes and Methodology Details for Focused Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease Panel in Method Description for additional details.

 

Identification of a pathogenic variant may assist with diagnosis, prognosis, clinical management, familial screening, and genetic counseling for ADPKD.

Clinical Information

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) typically manifests in adulthood and is primarily characterized by bilateral kidney cysts, liver cysts, and an increased risk for intracranial aneurysm.(1) Less commonly, symptoms of ADPKD can manifest in childhood or adolescence.(2) Two genes, PKD1 and PKD2, account for the majority of cases of ADPKD, with approximately 78% of cases being attributed to disease-causing variants in the PKD1 gene and approximately 15% of cases being attributed to disease-causing variants in the PKD2 gene.(1) Disease-causing variants in 2 other genes, DNAJB11 and GANAB, are estimated to account for less than 1% of ADPKD cases. The lifetime penetrance of bilateral cysts is close to 100% in individuals with ADPKD, but disease manifestation is typically age-dependent and gene-dependent.(3)

 

ADPKD can have significant clinical overlap with other autosomal dominant conditions in which bilateral kidney cysts are a common feature, including autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney diseases due to disease-causing variants in the HNF1B or UMOD genes.(1)

 

Rarer causes of autosomal dominant conditions with overlapping ADPKD features are emerging. The ALG8 gene is most commonly associated with polycystic liver disease, however case reports have identified isolated, bilateral kidney cysts in a small number of individuals.(4) The ALG9 gene is primarily associated with autosomal recessive congenital disorder of glycosylation, type I, but recent studies have identified isolated, bilateral kidney cysts in heterozygous carriers.(5)

Reference Values

An interpretive report will be provided.

Interpretation

All detected variants are evaluated according to American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics recommendations.(6) Variants are classified based on known, predicted, or possible pathogenicity and reported with interpretive comments detailing their potential or known significance.
