Abstract
|
|
|
|
Spontaneous renal hematoma is rare. We report a 43-year-old man presented with sudden left flank pain and severe hypertension. Renal hematoma was confirmed on computed tomography. Renal angiography showed no active bleeding or vascular malformation. Echocardiography showed severe concentric left ventricular hypertrophy. Hypertension was the only cause for the condition. Symptoms and size of the hematoma decreased on antihypertensive medication and conservative treatment. Severe hypertension might have a role for developing renal hematoma.
