Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Loin pain, hematuria and renal mass usually points towards a diagnosis of possible renal cell cancer. However, it could be a infection too. Unless further investigations are done, difficult to rule out anything.
2. CT scan will help in identifying the size of the mass and if its possibly benign or malignant. Any surrounding areas involved can also be seen.
3. A guided needle biopsy may be done for confirmation of type of lesion and further treatment is based on the type of lesion identified.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
