Hi,
Renal cysts are quite common. It does not cause any major problem especially if there are only a few.
There is some possible complication that can occur like an infection but are not common.
You should not worry, just have another scan later on, to keep an eye on them. No treatment is needed. Rest of the scan is normal as your kidneys and all structures are normal.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
