Kista of the kidney: symptoms, causes of appearance, treatment

What is a kidney cyst? Symptoms, causes? How to treat? You will find answers to these questions in this article.

To begin with, the definition. The cyst is a pathological formation that is a wall and contents.

With the definition sorted out. Now, as to the types of this new growth, like the kidney cyst. Symptoms, or rather their manifestation, will differ depending on what type of cyst:

• ellipsoidal;
• Spherical.

In addition, the cyst can be a single-cell(simple) or complex, that is, divided into segments. For neoplasms of the second type, the formation of mineral deposits on the walls is characteristic. For the most part, such cysts are benign and appear in people in adulthood.

What size does the kidney cyst on average have? Symptoms and follow-up examinations will help to draw the right conclusions. However, most often, the sizes of cysts vary between one and ten centimeters. In rare cases, there are also larger "specimens".

Kidney of the kidney: symptoms and causes of education, category

The cyst is formed due to the acceleration of the growth of epithelial cells in the tubules. Conditionally it can be divided into the following categories:

• neoplasms that appear during the life of the patient;
• neoplasms appearing in case of hereditary predisposition;
• cysts that develop against a background of genetically determined diseases.

All cysts are divided into four categories.

The first category is benignneoplasms, which can easily be detected by ultrasound or tomography. Such cysts are quite common and practically do not manifest themselves.

The second category is also benign cysts with blood residues and a diameter of up to three centimeters. If you enter a contrast medium in them, it will not be retained.

The third category is cysts that are prone tomalignization. They are difficult to see during the X-ray examination, on their thickened membranes and membranes, calcium deposits are observed. Such cysts must be surgically removed.

The fourth category is a cyst that has an unevensurface filled with liquid. During the X-ray examination, this category of neoplasms collects a contrast fluid, which confirms the presence of malignant cells in them. They also need to operate.

Kista of the kidney. The causes of the appearance of sinus and solitary varieties

Sinus cyst refers to simple, itappears due to an increase in the lumen of the lymphatic vessels that pass through the sine of the kidney located near the pelvis, however, not adjacent to it. As a rule, such pathology is observed in women after 45 years. The reasons for its appearance are still unknown.

Sinus cysts are most often detected by chance. They are not removed if their size is less than five centimeters.

The cyst is of a round or oval shape. It, as a rule, affects only one kidney. Often in the serous fluid cysts there is blood and even pus. Most often, the tumor is a consequence of injuries.

Kidney of the kidney: symptoms in children

Strangely enough, but the cyst can appear even inchildren. Statistics, however, say that they suffer from such a disease only in five percent of cases. Most often, the kidney cyst in children is formed precisely in boys, with mainly in the left kidney. The pathology in infants can develop both during life and at the stage of intrauterine maturation.

In most cases, neoplasms in children do not manifest themselves in any way, except for the options when the entire kidney is one large cyst and ceases to cope with its functions.

Many cysts on the kidney are called multicystosis. When multicystosis affects both kidneys, the child can die without timely assistance. Treatment should be performed surgically, in an emergency.
