Complex and common syst

Posted by bjroberts72 @bjroberts72, Feb 14 10:55pm

I have had an ultrasound and was diagnosed to have a complex syst 2.2 cm in size on my left kidney and several other common cyst on my right kidney was wondering if this is something I really need to be worried about and seek treatment or is this something i should just monitor

Hello,
It was a Bosniak 3 with a size of 9.2x7.7x7.9cm. It was a cystic lesion. I have the 1 kidney so hopefully with further changes to my diet and lifestyle I should be fine.

Your cyst was the size of a normal kidney. I’m sure that played a roll in the necessity of its removal. Most cysts are not functional, & don’t require removal. Of course there are exceptions. I was an ultrasound technologist for 28 years.
I agree that @bjroberts72 needs to talk to a urologist about his findings.
