Whether puncture or minimally invasive kidney cyst surgery is better should be decided according to the specific condition and individual’s physical condition. Usually, if the individual is older and not in good physical condition, he/she can’t withstand larger surgical trauma, so it is better to choose puncture surgery with less trauma and faster recovery; if the individual is younger and in good physical condition, it is better to choose minimally invasive surgery with complete effect and less chance of recurrence.
If the diameter of renal cyst is more than 5 centimeters, puncture surgery or minimally invasive surgery should be used in time for treatment. Puncture surgery requires the use of sclerosing agent under local anesthesia, which is less invasive but has a higher chance of recurrence after surgery and is suitable for patients with poor physical condition; minimally invasive surgery requires general anesthesia, which has a larger surgical incision but is thorough and has a small chance of recurrence, which is suitable for individuals with good physical condition.
Renal cyst puncture surgery and minimally invasive surgery have their own characteristics, renal cyst patients should be based on their own condition and physical condition, under the guidance of the physician to make a reasonable choice, not simply by virtue of their advantages and disadvantages, blind choice.
