Spontaneous rupture of the renal pelvis due to acute obstruction of the upper urinary tract

Abstract

Cases of spontaneous rupture of the pyelocaliceal system of the kidney, not associated with the consequences of endourological surgery, are described extremely rarely in the literature. Most often, such a complication develops in patients with urolithiasis. The article analyzes the literature data on urinary tract apoplexy and presents its own clinical observations.

Keywords

spontaneous rupture of the renal pelvis / kidney rupture / renal apoplexy / urinoma / urolithiasis / renal colic
