Dr. Bruce J. Stringer answered

Specializes in Radiology

Soft tissue: A mural nodule is a small nubbin of solid tissue on the inner wall of a cyst. It is another component of a complex cyst (where is it?). Complex as opposed to simple cysts are at a higher risk for harboring malignancy and so usually require further evaluation.
