Female renal cysts generally have no obvious symptoms, and the consequences of untreated in a few patients include triggering renal hypertension, ureteral obstruction, cyst rupture and many other complications.
Renal cysts generally refer to simple renal cysts, the cause of simple renal cysts is not completely clear, mostly related to the presence of acquired factors, such as renal tubular blockage, epithelial cell proliferation and so on.
When the diameter of simple renal cyst is small, female patients usually have no obvious symptoms. When the cyst increases in size, it can cause abdominal and back pain on the affected side. When a large amount of bleeding inside the cyst causes the cyst wall parenchyma to swell and compress the peritoneum, which causes severe back pain and is accompanied by hematuria, fever, abdominal mass and other manifestations.
If female patients are not treated in time, hypertension may occur due to compression of adjacent blood vessels by the cyst, which reduces local renal blood flow and increases renin levels. In addition, if the cyst compresses the ureter, it can also cause ureteral obstruction and may even cause hydronephrosis. Rupture of the cyst cavity is rare, and when it happens, the consequences are more serious.
After active treatment, renal cysts can usually relieve symptoms and improve prognosis. Female patients are advised to visit hospitals in time and actively cooperate with doctors for treatment.
