“…When complications occur in renal cysts, the symptoms are often unusual and never pathognomonic, so that diagnosis may be difficult. Complications which have been reported, include rupture (Clarke et al, 1956a) either spontaneous or from trauma, infection (Limjoco & Strauch, 1966), and rarely haematuria (Allen, 1962). Kreutzmann (1947) recorded two cases of hypertension associated with a solitary renal cyst, in one of which excision was followed by a satisfactorily maintained fall in blood pressure.…”
