Hi. This report suggests that there is an obstruction ( may be partial) to the outflow of the urine at the upper part of ureter ( the tube which carries urine from the kidney to the urinary bladder), showing what is described as Pelicaliectasia and ectasia.Cortical cyst has no clinical significance if small.
