A member asked:
Can a gallbladder sludge and cyst in liver cause kidney problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kidney problems: Not usually. However gallbladder sludge can lead to pancreatitis which can cause acute kidney injury. Also cysts in the liver can also be associated with cysts in the kidneys, so if there is anything abnormal with the kidney function, an ultrasound of the kidneys may be helpful.
