A Bosniak Category 1 cyst is ty[ically not cancerous and so does not need follow-up. However, there was a physician who ordered the CT scan/Urogram and you should follow-up with that physician and discuss what follow-up is necessary. What you are reporting to me may not be all that is seen in your scans.

A simple cyst of the kidney is what you have without evidence of cancer and may require follow-up periodically at the discretion of your urologist
