A member asked:

Could renal cortical cyst affect pregnant women?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Jared Fialkow answered

Kidney cysts: Most cysts on the kidneys are harmless and usually found during an exam for another reason. There is usually no reason to be concerned. Pregnancy does not usually predispose people to cysts.
