Abstract
-
Multilocular renal cyst having an entity of uncertain nature, is an uncommon benign lesion. As a treatment modality of renal multilocular cyst, simple or radical nephrectomy has been performed because of the difficulty in its accurate diagnosis and the documented association with malignancy. Herein, we report a case of renal multilocular cyst which was successfully treated by extirpation of the cystic mass only with preservation of the remaining normal renal parenchyma.
