Polycystic Hepatorenal Disease with Abnormalities of the Hepatic Vein, Report of Two cases

Two cases of polycystic liver and kidney have been described. The disease was diagnosed clinically by liver scanning, angiography and laparoscopy. The first case had large, extensive anastomosis of hepatic vein branches, and the second case showed abnormally in adrenal venography. It is possible, but not proven, that these vessel changes are etiologically related to this congenital abnormality.
