Case Report: Cystinuria and Polycystic Kidney Disease.

Cystinuria and polycystic kidney disease are 2 genetic disorders that affect the genitourinary tract but rarely together. This case report presents 2 pediatric patients diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease and cystinuria requiring surgical treatment. Both subjects presented acutely with stone disease. Imaging studies and stone analysis established the diagnoses. Although coexistence of these 2 conditions is rare, cystinuria should be considered in the differential diagnosis when evaluating patients with cystic disease who develop renal calculi.
