    Bilateral multilocular renal cysts can occur. Diagnosis should rely on histology, not unilaterality, as recurrence is possible even after curative surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Renal Pathology

    Background:

    • Multilocular renal cysts (MRC) are rare cystic renal neoplasms.
    • Current diagnostic criteria often emphasize unilaterality.

    Observation:

    • This report details the first documented case of bilateral MRC.
    • The patient underwent partial nephrectomy for the unilateral lesion.

    Findings:

    • Unilateral recurrence occurred despite initial curative intent surgery.
    • Histological features, not laterality, are crucial for accurate MRC diagnosis.
    • Bilateral MRC necessitates careful consideration of recurrence risk.

    Implications:

    • Suggests revising diagnostic criteria for MRC to exclude unilaterality.
    • Highlights the importance of histological assessment for predicting recurrence.
