Good evening doctors. is a bosniak iii kidney cyst treated with surgery or by observation? what type of surgery is required? is the entire kidney removed?

Good evening. Can be treated both ways depending on any symptoms or changes from previous findings. Surgery can be removal of just the cyst cyst or kidney- also dependent on size, location. Pl ask your Urologist and she/ he will explain.
