A member asked:
Gp says ultrasound showed lots of vessels on kidney & mentioned vascular lesion 4cm by 3.5 now got to have urgent ct scan and urology app what is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kidney issue: Any hypervascular issue is always taken seriously. So getting the CT Scan and seeing Urology is quite normal. This may be a simple vascular lesion, it may be a renal mass or a host of other things - a proper evaluation is needed.
