Multicystic dysplastic kidney and Kallmann's syndrome: a new association?
Our results describe a new type of urinary-tract malformation associated with Kallmann's syndrome. However, since multicystic kidneys tend to involute, only when more Kallmann's syndrome patients are screened in utero or in early childhood using structural renal scans, will it be possible to establish whether multicystic kidney disease is a bona-fide part of the syndrome.
The authors concluded that erythropoietin is safe and effective in patients in chronic-phase CML who develop anemia with imatinib therapy.
