Hi, I am a 44 year old woman who had RCC on 2004, had a partial nephroctomy of my right kidney. @ that time they also dicovered that I had a few cysts in the left kidney too, that is why they did not removed the whole kidney. last year's ultrasound discovered a "mildly complex" cyst in my left kidney and since this year's appointment is coming up I would like to know if the mildly complex cyst could be cancer. You know last time when it happened everything was so fast and I really remembered it as a dream... a very painfull dream. it all seem not real now. my children are terrified even when i really try not to show any fear and i dont shared with them anything but that everything is ok but they were very young last time and it really was very hard on all of us. I know I can do it again, but I just want to know what are the chances of this cyst to become cancer. any ideas? thank God for this site and God bless you all. |

Only your doctors can determine if it is Cancer or could become Cancer. These type of cysts can be cancer and the chance of them being cancer depends on their size. If you have been watched every year hopefully this can be taken care of before it becomes of the size that would make cancer likely and before any problems develope.
