What does it mean if i havea cyst on my right kidney?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If it is simple cyst nothing. Most cyst are benign and people develop then with age without any harmful effects. If the radiologist read this as complex then it would need to be evaluated further with more imaging.
