## Abstract

Simple renal cysts are commonly acquired benign lesions of the kidney. Requiring management only when it causes pain, obstruction, or gross hematuria, endoscopic marsupialization of simple renal cysts is a new method for the management of renal cysts. Herein, we present a rare case of a 44-year-old female with a simple renal cyst that was managed for the first time in Saudi Arabia by endoscopic marsupialization and discuss its efficacy and outcome compared to other methods of management.
