They found a small spot on my kidney over a year ago. When I went back to the urologist he said the size had not changed but he wants to do surgery to remove it. Other option was check it every 6 months. My insurance isn t that good but I wanted to see what you thought. I appreciate your help.
HelloSimple renal cysts are generally asymptomatic in nature, and usually it only requires follow-up ultrasound. Simple renal cysts are generally developmental findings. You may need clinical evaluation. Cyst may cause symptoms if there is infection in cyst or rapid increase in size. As cyst is small in your case, I suggest for follow-up ultrasound only. Intervention is only required in complicated cases. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.
