Recently a patient tells me that there is a 10.5 cm cyst on the kidney. And he wants to know whether it is big or not. We will discuss this topic in the article. If you have any other questions, please leave a message below or send emails to kidneycares@hotmail.com.
A 10.5 cm cyst on the kidney is big.
The normal kidney size of an adult human is about 9 to 13 cm long and about 5 to 7.5 cm wide. 10.5 cm kidney cyst is approximately the same big as your kidneys. Therefore, a 10.5 cm cyst on the kidney is big.
How to remove such a big kidney cyst?
If there is only one kidney cyst, surgery can help you remove the cyst quickly. There are usually two kinds of surgeries. One is laparoscopic cyst decortication to drain the cyst, followed by cauterization to seal the wound. And the other is sclerotherapy. It is to insert a long needle into your kidneys to pull fluid out of the cyst. Sometimes, in order to keep additional cysts from forming, alcohol may be injected into the kidney cyst.
But if there are many cysts on the kidneys, surgery is not a good choice for you. Because once you remove this one, the other small ones around it will grow up quickly. Here we recommend a conservative treatment. Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can shrink all the kidney cysts as well as improve kidney function. It is to penetrate the shattered Chinese medicine into the kidneys with the help of osmosis device. The active ingredients of Chinese medicine can stop the growth of cysts by retraining the proliferation of renal tubule epithelial cells and the secretion of lining cells. They can also shrink the cysts by increasing the permeability of cyst wall and speeding up blood circulation. Besides, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy can improve kidney function by anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation, blood vessel dilation and extracellular matrix degradation.
10.5 cm kidney cyst is so big that it may rupture at any time, so you should take care in the daily and receive treatment as early as possible.
