Is a left renal cortical cyst (4.3 cm) something to be concerned about?
A left renal cortical cyst measuring 4.3 cm is generally considered benign, especially if it is simple in nature and asymptomatic. However, it is important to monitor it for any changes over time, as larger cysts can occasionally cause discomfort or complications. Consulting with a healthcare provider for evaluation and potential imaging follow-up is advisable to ensure there are no underlying issues.
What does oliguria mean?
