What Is Lower Polar Simple Cortical Cyst And How Can We Get It ?
Hello, Thanks for your query. If she Is asymptomatic , she might not need any active Intervention. If she develops symptoms like pain In loin or hematuria, you need to consult a urologist. Cyst means a swelling which Is hollow like balloon. Cortical means It Is placed In the outer layer of kidney. Even the size of the cyst matters which you have not mentioned about.Hope I have answered your query I will be available for your follow up queries If any. Wishing you good health. Regards,
