What are the complications of acquired cystic kidney disease?

People with acquired cystic kidney disease may develop the following complications:
  • an infected cyst, which can cause fever and back pain.
  • blood in the urine, which can signal that a cyst in the kidney is bleeding.
  • tumors in the kidneys. People with acquired cystic kidney disease are more likely than people in the general population to have cancerous kidney tumors. However, the chance of cancer spreading is lower in people with acquired cystic kidney disease than that of other kidney cancers not associated with acquired cystic kidney disease, and the long-term outlook is better
