a 15 year old girl- is it uncommon to have kidney cysts?

While kidney cysts are not common in children and adolescents, they can occur. Simple kidney cysts are usually harmless and do not cause any symptoms or require treatment. However, in rare cases, kidney cysts can be associated with underlying medical conditions or may grow large enough to cause complications, such as pain or obstruction of the urinary tract. If you are concerned about a kidney cyst in a 15 year old girl, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management.
