Abstract:
:This article presents an updated review of cystic renal mass imaging. Most cystic renal masses encountered incidentally are benign and can be diagnosed confidently on imaging and require no follow-up. Hyperattenuating masses discovered at unenhanced or single-phase enhanced computed tomography (CT) measuring between 20-70 HU are indeterminate and can be further investigated first by using ultrasound and, then with multi-phase CT or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); as the majority represent haemorrhagic/proteinaceous cysts (HPCs). Dual-energy CT may improve differentiation between HPCs and masses by suppressing unwanted pseudo-enhancement observed with conventional CT. HPCs can be diagnosed confidently when measuring >70 HU at unenhanced CT or showing markedly increased signal on T1-weighted imaging. Although the Bosniak criteria remains the reference standard for diagnosis and classification of cystic renal masses, histopathological classification and current management has evolved: multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has been reclassified as a cystic renal neoplasm of low malignant potential, few Bosniak 2F cystic masses progress radiologically during follow-up; RCC with predominantly cystic components are less aggressive than solid RCC; and Bosniak III cystic masses behave non-aggressively. These advances have led to an increase in non-radical management or surveillance of cystic renal masses including Bosniak 3 lesions. Tubulocystic RCC is a newly described entity with distinct imaging characteristics, resembling a pancreatic serous microcystadenoma. Other benign cystic masses including: mixed epithelial stromal tumours (MEST) are now considered in the spectrum of cystic nephroma and angiomyolipoma (AML) with epithelial cysts (AMLEC) resemble a fat-poor AML with cystic components.
