The discovery of the frequently encountered, sporadic, complex renal cyst presents a unique problem. It is important to remember that radiological characterization is dynamic and not a pathological diagnosis. While the Bosniak classification has stood the test of time, it is fraught with interobserver variability and a 50-50 likelihood of malignancy in Bosniak 3 lesions, and it has inadvertently resulted in overzealous repeat radiological imaging.
