What Are Medical Implications of Multiple Bilateral Renal Cysts

Some patients’ ultrasound tests show that they have multiple bilateral renal cysts. Nephrologists from Kidney Service China introduce this result means more than 2 cysts develop in both kidneys. With the growth of these cysts, some medical implications may appear one by one.

Generally speaking, their location and size determines what problems kidney cysts may cause.

Multiple bilateral renal cysts are located in renal cortex

Renal cortex consists of glomeruli and renal tubules, so healthy cortex can guarantee the normal works of kidneys. However, with the expansion of fluid-filled cysts, these cysts will cause damage to renal cortex. Then, the following problems will appear.

- Enlarged abdomen or big belly

- Severe back pain

- The decline of kidney function

- Urinary tract infections and hematuria

- High blood pressure

When kidney functioning tissues are attacked by large multiple cysts, patients will be faced by a serious kidney problem.

Multiple bilateral renal cysts are generated from renal sinus

In clinic, renal sinus fluid collections are called parapelvic cysts. Renal pelvis has two typical functions: collecting urine and transporting urine from kidneys into ureter. Therefore, the following medical implications happen easily.

- Urinary tract blockage

- Pyelonephritis

- Burning or painful sensation during urination

- Swelling or fluid retention

Now, we can know no matter which kind of multiple bilateral renal cysts patients have, they should take effective methods timely to manage their illness condition and protect their kidneys.

For renal cortical cysts, conventional therapy, namely herbal remedy, and surgery are both helpful. Surgery can help remove large kidney cysts directly but can do nothing for small cysts, while herbal remedy aims at shrinking all kidney cysts spontaneously. As for parapelvic cysts, only conventional therapies can be used.
