Hello
Thanks for query .

Based on the fact that you have posted hyperechoic mass of a size of 0.3 cm located in kidney could be an benign tumor like Angiomyolipoma, renal cell cancer, or hemorrhagic cyst and need further evaluation by doing either C T Scan or MRI to pin point the diagnosis .

The treatment options will depend upon the results of these tests and final diagnosis .
