Management of Renal Cysts

چکیده
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Renal cysts have a high prevalence in the general population, and their estimated incidence increases with age. Renal cyst aspiration (usually with sclerotherapy) or open/laparoscopic decortication is a generally effective and safe method in the treatment of symptomatic simple renal cysts. The success rates of laparoscopic decortication and percutaneous aspiration-sclerotherapy were compared to assist in the decision making for the procedure. METHODS A total of 184 patients with symptomatic simple renal cysts were treated with either laparoscopic decortication in 149 cases or percutaneous aspiration-sclerotherapy in 35 cases. The follow-up period was approximately 35 months, and the symptomatic and radiologic success rates of the 2 techniques were compared retrospectively. RESULTS Laparoscopic decortication was found to have high success rates, a low recurrence rate, and minimal morbidity. Percutaneous aspiration-sclerotherapy is an outpatient procedure with a minimally higher recurrence rate. CONCLUSION When a symptomatic cyst is encountered and treatment of the cyst is indicated, laparoscopic decortication is a more efficient method that offers better results than percutaneous aspiration-sclerotherapy.

Background & Aims: Renal cysts are common disorders in adults. Traditionally, symptomatic patients with renal cysts are treated with percutaneous aspiration with or without using sclerosing agent. However, the recurrence rate is high in this procedure. Thus, we assessed the long-term outcomes of laparoscopic decortication of simple renal cysts from the clinical and radiologic points of view...
