How to treat kidney cyst stones

Patient's question:

Got checked at the hospital, the cyst is 4.4 by 4.0, the stone is 1.0. The cyst is translucent with no echoes, while the stone has echoes. Just discovered this, what kind of treatment do I need for my kidney cyst and stone condition?

Doctor's answer:

You have discovered a kidney cyst with stones inside. If the kidney cyst is small and asymptomatic, it is recommended to carefully monitor it without intervention. The kidney cyst you mentioned refers to the general term for cystic masses of varying sizes that repeatedly appear inside the kidneys and are not connected to the outside. Common clinical diagnoses of kidney cysts include adult polycystic kidney disease, simple renal cysts, and acquired renal cysts. Kidney cysts can be detected through X-ray contrast, kidney ultrasound, CT, and nuclear imaging.
