Hello,
If the cyst in the kidneys is small, it will not cause such symptoms. Prostatic calcifications are of two types: primary and secondary. Primary calcifications are found in older men and is usually asymptomatic, though occasionally these calcifications move into a duct orifice and can pass onto urethra where it can cause obstruction.
Secondary calcifications are found in most of the patients of prostatitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia. so this needs evaluation from a urologist.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Thanks for the information....I was hoping it would explain it all.....
Cysts are usually meaningless. Most people over 40, and some younger, develop cysts; extremely common.
The prostatic calcifications, likewise are benign, you can safely ignore that as well.
None of that explains your original complaint.
Thank you. He has an appointment to see a Urologist on May 3rd. I went and got his CT scan report today and it states that there is a tiny cyst in involving the left kidney. That is all it says. Also it states Prostatic calcifications. That is all it says. What does this mean?
Hello,
If he has been given 3 bags of Iv fluid then he should have excreted more. It may mean retention urine. In males it can be due to obstruction due to enlarged prostate due to benign prostatic hypertrophy (often called BPH) or infection of the prostate( prostatitis), any blockage in the flow of urine like any scar tissue, injury (as in a car wreck or bad fall), blood clots, infection, tumors in the pelvic region, and stones, infection or due to disruption of the delicate and complex system of nerves that connects the urinary tract with the brain and the nervous system.
I suggest you an immediate urologist’s evaluation to check out these possibilities and confirm the diagnosis after investigations.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
No not nornal.
Either urinary retention, dehydration or heart failure.
See if a catheter will go in and record the post void residual.
Chack a creatinine.
