Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you are having cyst or benign lesion mostly. But better to get done ultrasound of kidney for more information.
If this normal or saying cystic benign lesion than no need to worry.
Repeat ultrasound after 3 months.
But if suspicious lesion is found than go for biopsy and histopathological examination to rule out malignancy.
So get done ultrasound of kidney first.
