Hi. Thanks for asking for help. You don't have to panic here. Please Chat Doctor. If you have any urinary symptoms get a Urine-Culture test done & treat the infection if found. The cortical cysts need not be feared. You can repeat the Ultra sound scan after 3-6 months & see if there is any change / increase in size of the cysts. If yes get it attended to by an Neurosurgeon. Take care.
