A member asked:
Just want to ask some details regarding the result of my ultrasound "hyperchoic solid mass size 5.9cm x 2.4 cm x 4.3 cm adjacent to middle kidney?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Difficult: to get specific without additional details. In general, uniformly hyperechoic well defined renal masses usually turn out to be benign fat-containing tumors called angiomyolipomas(AML). However, sometimes malignant lesions can have a similar appearance. Generally CT and/or MRI would be the next step, AMLs have a very typical appearance on those modalities. Talk to your doc about next steps.
