Hi,
I would not be concerned as CT scan is a pretty good imaging for diagnosis of cysts , and as it is reported as only simple cysts ,there is absolutely no need to worry.
Dilatation of pelvicalyceal system and pelvis with extra renal pelvis is also an incidental finding ,which do not warrant any intervention.
