What is a cyst on a kidney?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Fluid : It is a fluid filled structure which most of the time is of benign nature. When they are multiple they require further evaluation for not so benign conditions. On the least occasions they could be associated to a malignant structure and require extensive tests and treatment. A follow up with urology is recommended in order to decide the nature of the cyst/ cysts.
