kidney simple cyst treatment with alcohol

summary

Objective. The authors assess the efficacy of treatment of simple renal cysts
with 95.5% aethyl alcohol injected into their lumen.
Material and methods. The diagnosis was confirmed by traditional ultrasono-
graphy and color Doppler, urography, and renal scintigrąphy. In two children
aged 4 and 5 years with simple renal cysts ultrasound-guided puncture, aspira-
tion of fluid and instillation of 95.5% of aethyl alcohol was done and a needle
was withdrawn.
Results. After 3 weeks diameter of cysts began to diminish. By 5 weeks cysts
were not detected in ultrasonography. One year after the treatment no recurren-
ce of cyst was detected.
Conclusions. In 2 children treatment of simple renal cyst with 95.5% aethyl
alcohol has proved to be safe and effective method of treatment.
