Patient's question:
The baby has jaundice today and went to the hospital to check. The doctor found a mass below the baby's kidney, suspected to be a right renal cyst. What should we do now? Could it be a misdiagnosis? How could the baby's kidney have a cyst?Doctor's answer:
To actively treat, surgery may be necessary when required. However, there are also cases where children absorb it on their own. This generally involves some visible tuberculosis, where consuming anti-inflammatory medications and performing this "nodule removal" can achieve the desired treatment effect, leading to improvement. If pregnant, this treatment is not performed, and it can be implemented after childbirth to achieve the treatment effect. Therefore, currently, no treatment is needed, and if there are masses postpartum, surgery can be considered. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
