Renal Nodule 6mm High Echo may be caused by renal calcification foci, renal stone, renal malformation tumor and so on, which can be treated by observation, medicine and surgery.
1. Renal calcification foci: It may be due to renal cortex infection or renal trauma, forming smaller infection foci, and calcification foci are formed after the repair of the infection foci, which leads to 6mm hyperechoic renal nodule. Usually regular review is enough and no special treatment is needed.
2. Kidney stones: If you find renal nodule 6mm hypoechoic, located in the collecting system, accompanied by acoustic shadows, it is usually caused by kidney stones. At this time, patients can take extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy and other methods of treatment.
3. Renal malformation tumor: it is a benign tumor of kidney composed of blood vessels, smooth muscle and adipose tissue, and the adipose tissue will be hyperechoic under ultrasound, which leads to the appearance of renal nodule 6mm hypoechoic. At this time, tumor changes should be monitored every 6 to 12 months, and if the tumor is larger than 4cm, it is mostly treated by surgical resection.
If the renal nodule 6mm hypoechoic condition occurs, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time, under the guidance of the doctor, improve the relevant examination, clarify the cause of the disease and standardize the treatment.
