Abstract

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) presenting in adults is well documented, but the presentation in children is uncommon and is unclear why the disease presents early. Cases in children are identified usually while screening those with a strong family history and less commonly when symptomatic. We present here two children with ADPKD.
