| Abstract | INTRODUCTION: The expansion of renal cysts diagnosis in the population entails to learn how to properly identify and treat potentially malignant lesions. The aim of this review article is to discuss anatomical and pathological characteristics as well as treatment of cystic renal tumors. METHOD: A literature review of Medline publications on renal cysts and cystic tumors was conducted. Prospective and retrospective studies in adults, and previous reviews were analyzed. RESULTS: Bosniak classification of renal cysts is used worldwide among urologists and radiologists to categorize cystic lesions according to their potential malignancy. There is a 0, 15, 50 and 95 % chance of cancerous cells in Bosniak I, II, III, and IV, respectively. The most frequent pathology is renal cell carcinoma, usually low grade and low stage. Category IIF cysts (F for follow-up) have a 25 % chance of malignancy and require surveillance at 6 months and regularly for 5 years. The follow-up can be done with CT imaging, MRI or contrast enhanced ultrasonography. Cyst biopsy, which was not recommended for a long time, could prevent 40 % of unnecessary surgeries for benign lesions. Bosniak category I and II cysts can be treated if symptomatic, by sclerotherapy or laparoscopic deroofing of the cyst. Category III and IV lesions must be treated as malignant tumors with security margins. CONCLUSION: Diagnosis and treatment of Bosniak category IIF renal cysts remain the primary challenge for physicians in cystic renal tumor management. Biopsies of renal cysts seem reliable, with no risk of malignant cell dissemination. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
