A member asked:

I have <1cm hyperechoic lesion at mid-lower right kidney. no symptoms outside mild back stiffness. urine/ivc/liver = normal. how worried should be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible cancer: A hyperechoic lesion should be evaluated. Check to see if Hgb increasing or blood in urine. An angiogram of kidney should be performed because of increased vascularity of kidney tumors and a PET scan would also indicate if lesion is possibly malignant. A needle bx then required to make histologic dx.
