Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education:

Glomerulocystic kidney is a lesion with protean causes and clinical manifestations. Recent clinicopathological and molecular genetic analysis have shed light on the varied etiology, symptomatology, presenting features and have allowed a better classification of the disease. An accurate categorization of the lesion is of utmost importance for the proper prognostication and appropriate management of individual patients.
