Hello,
From your question, it is not possible to say what it is. Is it just one small hole in each kidney? Are there many of them? Are these "holes" something they found in an ultrasound? It could be cysts.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Christine Sauer
