The IVU shows a spider leg deformity of the calyces.* The damage to the kidney results in decrease in amount of erythropoietin leading to normocytic normochromic anemia.* The damage to the kidney results in development of reduction in GFR and positive feedback to R.A.A.S system results in increase in renin levels as well as high Blood pressure.
