The kidney is one of the most common sites in the body for cysts. Cysts may be located diffusely throughout the kidney or in one segment only. They may appear unilaterally or bilaterally. In some entities cysts may represent a form of dysplasia and may be accompanied by other findings of dysplasia.
Most renal cystic conditions-congenital, sporadic, and acquired-arise from the nephrons and collecting ducts after they have formed, whether normally or abnormally.
It is important to have the history of the patient's family for an accurate diagnosis. Abdominal sonography may reveal renal cysts as well as cysts in other organs. Intravenous urography, CT scan or MRI (or both) may be helpful for diagnosis.
Surgical treatment changes due to the presence of hypertension, pain, infection, suspicious of malignancy and the type of the cystic renal disease.Keywords: Kidney, cystic disease, surgical treatmentTurkiye Klinikleri J Int Med Sci 2005, 1(4):70-77
