Abstrakt: | Objective: The etiology of spontaneous retroperitoneal hemorrhage is analyzed and the clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects are discussed. Methods/results: Two cases of spontaneous retroperitoneal hemorrhage from a ruptured adenocarcinoma of the kidney are reported. Both patients presented the characteristic Lenk's triad. Definitive diagnosis was made on the CT findings and treatment was by nephrectomy. Conclusions: The most common cause of retroperitoneal hemorrhage arising from the kidney is a tumor. Treatment is based on the underlying cause of the underlying cause of the hemorrhage and the patient's hemodynamic status. |
