Shows the occurrence of intracranial aneurysms in ADPKD, indicating genetic variants may influence risk.
In patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), intracranial aneurysms (ICAs) have been reported in 9–19% of patients, corresponding to approximately a sevenfold higher risk than in the general population. Known risk factors include a family history of subarachnoid hemorrhage or ICA, a history of smoking, and the PKD1 genotype.
