Figure 2.
Clinically available and research-based management strategies for patients with PKD. *Research treatment in clinical development. **Iron overload often occurs in the absence of transfusion. Chelation therapy should be strongly considered if liver iron concentration > 5 mg/g or ferritin > 800 μg/L and transferrin saturation > 60%, even in the absence of transfusions. ***Future studies may indicate that other genotypes are responsive.
