A member asked:
Good morning doctors. is there a typical or standard surgery or treatment for a complex renal cyst after ct scan or mri? do they remove the entire kidney, or is it possible to remove just the cyst or just the septation or septations?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
G' morning. If at all surgery is needed there is a good chance the kidney would not have to be removed. But the particular treatment depends on the site, size and similar findings. Good luck
