Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is a rare genetic disorder that can be detected on the antenatal ultrasound where it is manifested as enlarged and echogenic fetal kidneys. The kidneys appear echogenic due to numerous tiny cystic interfaces. It can be associated with congenital hepatic fibrosis and pulmonary hypoplasia.
