Yes, it has something to do with the size of the left kidney. This means that you have a cyst growth, which usually contains interstitial fluid and in the outer region of the kidney.
Ventilation, bilateral = position relative to the body, kidneys = Refers to the kidneys, cortical = near bodies outside, fluid-filled cyst = sack.
Kidney cyst is a sac of fluid normally. The simple renal cyst is more common.
The cause for a simple renal cysts is not fully understood. But there is no evidence that renal cysts are a genetic disease. One or more renal cysts grow in May simultaneously in small tubes in the kidneys.
Cysts, renal cysts are usually asymptomatic and does not usually lead to kidney disease. Very often know, not even the people who have a kidney cyst. However, it can cause kidney cyst pain if it grows enough to support other organs. Sometimes a kidney cyst is infected and starts to bleed. When this happens, a renal cyst may increase blood pressure, but usually no effect on renal function.
A kidney cyst is notin need of treatment if no complications are present. But if you have symptoms of renal cysts may require surgery.

This disease is an autosomal recessive trait, which inherited the risk of relapse by 25% for parents whose children following. The kidneys are affected bilaterally, so that in the uterus, usually there is oligohydramnios because of poor kidney function and the inability to form large amounts of fetal urine. The main result of oligohydramnios is pulmonary hypoplasia, so that newborns are not enough lung capacity to survive, regardless of any attempt to treat kidney failure. RPKD may be called type I cystic disease in the classification of Potter.
About kidneys are significantly enlarged, and tend to fill in the retroperitoneum and displacing the abdominal contents. The kidneys are usually symmetrically enlarged. The cysts are very small and uniform, perhaps 1 to 2 mm on average. Microscope to find the feature in the third quarter to extend their changes with subsequent cystic cysts and radially. The clusters are not involved by cysts, and parenchymal involvement is not increased. In the second quarter of May, cysts, not so well developed. A useful post-mortem is the presence of congenital hepatic fibrosis, which RPKD support.
