title: [Echographic screening for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease from intrauterine life to adult life].
abstract: ADPKD is the most widespread genetic nephropathy. Only twenty-five per cent of patients are symptomatic. In order to prevent the disease it is important early screening by ultrasonography that shows a typical picture only in adults. Familiar history is determinant for diagnosis in intrauterine age, in newborns and in infants. Ultrasonographic diagnosis is certain only after twenty-five weeks of pregnancy.
