Diagnostic and Treatment Center for Inherited Kidney Diseases
Introduction
This center was officially established in Shuang Ho Hospital on October 4, 2023. It is responsible for the provision of disease-related information, dietary and lifestyle precautions, and personalized treatments to patients with inherited kidney diseases (e.g. polycystic kidney disease, Fabry disease, etc.). In order to improve patients’health-related quality of life, the center also aims to explain correct concepts to patients who are about to face dialysis while releasing their doubts and fears. Furthermore, the center plays a crucial role in delivering physical as well as mental support before, during, and after kidney transplant surgery.
Our center plans to hold an international academic conference on polycystic kidney disease every year, providing a platform for scholars, doctors and experts to exchange and share research results, clinical experiences and treatment methods, and thus advancing the dissemination of polycystic kidney-related knowledge and the promotion of different kinds of researches. For all participants, it is not only an excellent opportunity to explore the latest research trends and best practices in the field of polycystic kidney disease, but also a great occasion to gain valuable international exposure and develop international friendships. It is expected that this annual conference will attract experts and scholars from all over the world to join forces to expand cross-border cooperation and innovative treatment solutions involving polycystic kidney disease.
