Something else : Do you have a diagnosis? Family history of polycystic kidney disease? Radiologist is probably best dr to talk to as will correlate your history with specific cyst patters seen on imaging. Will also be able to recommended additional diagnostic tests & use intervention techniques to diagnose, drain & treat as needed. Apckd > hydatid cysts can do this. Confirm its adrenal cyst vs adenoma, .
