“…To our knowledge, only 5 cases of renal cysts >15 cm have been reported, and all cases were treated with intervention (Table 2). [8][9][10][11][12] Most cysts do not require treatment unless they become infected; in such cases, antibiotics are needed. If the cyst size increases to the point of causing a pressure effect on other organs and pain, the treatment options are either percutaneous drainage and sclerotherapy using ethanol or laparoscopic excision.…”

Background: Simple renal cysts typically produce no symptoms or signs and are usually detected incidentally on imaging studies for unrelated causes. Massive renal cysts are very rare. Case Report: A 77-year-old female with preexisting chronic kidney disease presented to our hospital for evaluation of hyperkalemia, abdominal distension, and right flank pain. Upon arrival, her vital signs and physical examination were normal. Laboratory data were pertinent for a serum creatinine of 4.8 mg/dL (6 months prior to presentation, serum creatinine was 1.5 mg/dL, and 1 month after discharge, it was 4.6 mg/dL), and hyperkalemia of 6.0 mmol/L. Computed tomography revealed a massive right renal cyst measuring 22 × 11 × 17.5 cm and displacing the intra-abdominal structures. Because of her symptoms, the patient was evaluated by urology for surgical management. The patient refused invasive procedures and chose pain control and monitoring. Conclusion: Noninvasive treatment options for a massive simple renal cyst are limited. Symptomatic treatment and monitoring the cyst size on a regular basis might be helpful for patients who refuse invasive treatment.

Cystic diseases of the kidneys are a fairly common pathology, which has a negative impact on the course of underlying disease affecting the kidneys, or even being the primary renal pathology. The purpose of this review is to analyze the latest literature data on the etiology, pathogenesis, and diagnosis of cystic kidney diseases. This article highlights some aspects of the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of cystic kidney diseases in order to deepen knowledge about this pathology. Important nuances of ultrasound diagnosis of cystic kidney diseases are discussed. Modern equipment allows diagnosing almost all variants of cystic kidney disease. Training in ultrasound examination or at least knowledge of sonographic interpretation should be part of training in nephrology.
