The angiolipoma of the right kidney is a benign condition and it needs intervention only if it is symptomatic. If you develop pain over the right renal area, you can get it operated. This is nothing to do with the shooting pain down in the front of your left leg which needs further investigations like CT/ MRI of the lumbosacral spines to r/o sciatica.
