You have been detected to have a Space Occupying Lesion in middle pole of the Right Kidney .
Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical and digital rectal examination and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis.
1) Urine Cytology
2) C.T Scan of abdomen (Plain and with Contrast) .
3) Renal function tests
4) Renal angiography(if required )
Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis as regard the nature of the lesion .
