Why are Some Renal Cysts without Treatment?

As technology advances and the doctor detect healthy popularity, the detection rate of renal cysts growing. Almost everyone was told that people suffering from kidney cyst doctor will ask the same question: Yan is not serious? Or need treatment? Clinical manifestations of renal cysts of varying types, the prognosis is not the same. Correct treatment of renal cysts approach is: neither careless, do not panic.

Generally asymptomatic renal cyst

Renal cysts generally be divided into: simple renal cysts, polycystic kidney disease and acquired cystic kidney disease (dialysis patients is common) categories. Among them, the most common simple renal cysts. Renal cysts small size, generally no symptoms. As do routine physical examination, can not easily be found.

The rate of progression of renal cysts are mostly slow. Simple renal cysts are generally little change in the size or number of small cysts in some patients may be slightly increased, there are a small number of patients with cystic may be slightly reduced. Polycystic kidney cysts in patients with the number and size increased with age. Acquired cystic kidney disease in patients with longer duration of dialysis, the higher the incidence of cysts.
Treatment pay attention to "prioritize"

Although mostly benign renal cyst, but will still controversial cancerous. Furthermore, it should be alert to the possibility of neoplastic renal cysts. Therefore, in patients with renal cysts do regular follow-up is very important.

Many patients with renal cysts after learning of the presence of renal cysts, dread; there are many patients with renal cysts after I heard, "It does not matter," guard. These two approaches are not right. Treat renal cysts, should pay attention to "light", "heavy", "slow", "urgent."

"Light": fewer, smaller, simple no local pain and other symptoms of renal cysts, polycystic kidney disease early when no renal dysfunction, hypertension, infection, etc., is a "light" syndrome. Patients were followed up only once every six months or a year, check the urine, urine culture, renal function, do B-observation cyst size, shape and internal texture changes, does not require treatment.
"Heavy": If the wide range of lesions in patients with polycystic kidney disease, the disease progresses rapidly, significantly impaired renal function, or infection, hypertension and other serious complications, is a "heavy" disease. Should be receiving anti-infection, and even dialysis treatment.

"Slow": kidney cyst is a chronic disease, you should insist on regular follow-up. Patients I should objectively look at the disease. Especially in patients with polycystic kidney disease, be sure to feel comfortable, and actively cooperate with treatment.

"Urgent": When cysts increased significantly, increased bleeding, infection and other unexpected situations are "anxious" disease. Timely medical treatment, active treatment.

Although there is no method of treatment effects of renal cysts, but it does not mean renal cysts had only "fate." When the cyst increased compression symptoms, the time line puncture fluid therapy to prevent renal impairment; aggressive treatment of hypertension in patients with polycystic kidney disease and other complications, are the alternative treatment.

Simple renal cysts are not genetic 

Most people in the first time that they are suffering from renal cysts, is an adult, very concerned about whether the next generation will be inherited renal cysts. Simple renal cyst formation is acquired, not inherited. Polycystic kidney disease is relatively clear genetic disease. Adult polycystic kidney disease as an example, if one sick parents, children, prevalence of 50%; parents are sick, children, the prevalence rate of 75%.
