Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My cortical cyst right kidney upper pole measures 1.3 x 1.0 cm and found to have calcification though I dont have any symptoms such as urine in blood, back pain and difficulty urinating. I am 51 yo but health buff though eats chips and salted peanuts frequently. Is it dangerous? What shall i do?
This small cyst is not dangerous at all because you are not having any symptoms. I would recommend you to get repeat ultrasound after every year to look for the size of the cyst whether its increasing in sizes or not.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
