A small benign cyst, with no growth over time, would not be an abnormal finding. In contrast, a malignant cyst would pose an abnormal and concerning problem, potentially requiring a rapid medical response.

What is an upper pole cyst?

An upper pole cyst is a type of renal cyst located at the upper pole of the kidney. These cysts are often simple, meaning they are fluid-filled sacs that typically do not cause symptoms or complications. They are usually discovered incidentally during imaging studies for unrelated conditions. While most upper pole cysts are benign, monitoring may be recommended to ensure they do not change in size or become problematic.


What is a1.5 cm simple exophytic cyst upper pole of left kidney?

A 1.5 cm simple exophytic cyst in the upper pole of the left kidney is a fluid-filled sac that is typically benign and located on the outer surface of the kidney. These cysts are commonly found during imaging studies and usually do not cause symptoms or require treatment unless they grow larger or cause complications. The term "exophytic" indicates that the cyst protrudes outward from the kidney's surface. Monitoring through regular imaging may be recommended to ensure it remains stable.

What is cortical cyst in left kidney?

A cyst is a fluid filled structure. Cortical describes its location in the cortex, meaning the outer portion of the kidney. Mid pole is the middle portion of the kidney. There are different types of cysts. Simple cysts are harmless and may be ignored. Complex cysts range from harmless to cancerous. The features of the cyst will help the radiologist (the doctor interpreting the exam) determine whether the cyst is simple or complex. Depending on its features, complex cysts will need to be reimaged (with CT or ultrasound) or removed (with surgery).
