Kidney cysts usually do not need to be treated if the volume is relatively small, regular follow-up observation is sufficient, but if the volume of kidney cysts reaches 10 centimeters or more, surgery is required. At present, kidney cyst surgery is divided into traditional surgery and minimally invasive surgery. In fact, kidney cyst surgery is to remove the top of the cyst, which is equivalent to removing the lid of the pot. Thus, the cyst fluid inside is not allowed to form pressure on the parenchyma of the kidney and reduce the damage to the kidney, which is the fundamental purpose of kidney cyst surgery. Traditional kidney cyst surgery is more traumatic and requires incision of the kidney, aspiration of the fluid inside the cyst through instruments, and then removal of the top of the cyst, which is more traumatic and slower recovery time. At this stage, minimally invasive surgery is performed with the help of laparoscopy to remove the top of the kidney cyst through instruments, which has a series of advantages such as less surgery time, less trauma, less bleeding and faster recovery. However, since kidney cysts are formed by blockage of the kidney glands, there is a certain chance of recurrence after the surgery. For people with kidney cysts larger than 10 centimeters in size, the choice of having surgery needs to be arranged by the clinician. The clinician will make the best surgical plan according to each person’s physical condition and the specific location of the cyst.
