A member asked:
On ultrasound if ther is a cyst with a solid nodule in mid pole of kidney...what does that mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cysts: Having a cyst in the kidney can be a benign occurrence- many people develop a cyst or two later in life. However the answer to your question needs more info: size, how many, how old you are, other medical history, characteristics in the imaging scan. See a nephrologist or urologist to address this- don't wait.
