What is a Renal Cyst?I just got a copy of my ultra sound report from Radiology and it says:
Benign right renal cysts are seen. No Solid lesions or stones identified.
I am seeing my doctor in 3 weeks, but wanted to know if anyone knows this could be somthing serious???
BTW, the ultrasound was of the abdomen.
I am 38 years old

Sounds like cysts on your kidney. But it doesn't sound serious- benign, no lesions or stones. And I'm sure that if it was serious, your doctor would call you right away.

renal means kidney. so its a cyst of the kidney, sounds scary. o.0 are they giving you meds or anything for it?
im sure though, if it was something really bad they woulldve told you, or told your doctor who wouldve called you.

A simple benign, not cancerous, will not cause you to get kidney cancer. It is like having a cyst on your ovaries. It wont hurt you.

First off, do not panic. Almost all cysts are benign. Most people experience no symptoms and do not even know they have them until they are found on ultrasound. All a cyst is is a fluid filled sac located inside of your kidney. When you see your doctor in 3 weeks he/she may ask you questions regarding any symptoms that you may have been experiencing. If you are not experiencing any symptoms your doctor may decide that they want to have you undergo another scan in 6 months to keep an eye on it. You did not mention your age but more than half of people over the age of 50 have cysts in their kidneys. I hope this helps.
