Hi see mass over kidney is exophytic and increasing in size.You must have to do small biopsy of mass to rule out whether it is benign or malignant one.Only by biopsy RCC will be confirmed.according to history it seems malignant.so biopsy advisable earliest.if it is benign lesion then no worry but for malignant invasive lesion kidney is removed.thanks
