General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Most probably it will be a simple benign (non-cancerous) cyst.
Consult a nephrologist and get evaluated. A biopsy may be required to make a diagnosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
