the answer is polycystic kidney disease. urinary tract infections do not cause enlargement, neither does urinary incontinence. alkalosis is not a primary symptom of kidneys functioning improperly or enlargement in size.

Answer: Poly-cystic Kidney Disease

Step-by-step explanation:

Poly-cystic kidney disease (PKD) is an inherited disorder in which clusters of cysts develop primarily within your kidneys, causing your kidneys to enlarge and lose function over time. Cysts are noncancerous round sacs containing fluid. The cysts vary in size, and they can grow very large.
