description BACKGROUND: Severe neonatal autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is rare and easily confused with recessive PKD. Managing such infants is difficult and often unsuccessful. CASE DIAGNOSIS/TREATMENT: A female infant with massive renal enlargement, respiratory compromise and hyponatraemia was treated with the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 antagonist tolvaptan. This resolved hyponatraemia, and there was no further increase in renal size. CONCLUSION: Tolvaptan may be a useful treatment for severe neonatal PKD.
