I will be seeing a Urologist for the first time tomorrow. The diagnosis from ultrasound and CT states that there are heterogeneous renal parenchymal lesions that extend into the superior aspect of the 8cm thin cyst that has simple fluid attenuation. I don't know what to expect or what questions I should be asking at the appointment ? I did briefly talk with someone in the urology department and he told me we are possibly looking at a Bosniak 2b or 3 cyst. Not sure what this might mean? Can't find what the' b' stands for? Any advice would be much appreciated. Not sure what to expect or if this is curable etc.?
Hi a few ppl in this group have had a Bosniak cyst, so you might find something about them by searching in the group. I personally have no experience of this, having had a straightforward nephrectomy.
Fear of the unknown is the worst thing. Once we know what we're facing, we find the strength to deal with it.
