| Popis: | Renal papillary necrosis is an infrequent cause of hematuria characterized by ischemic necrosis of the renal medulla, especially the papilla. Its most common cause is analgesic abuse. Despite being oligo-symptomatic, in many cases its presence is associated with serious functional sequelae. Imaging, especially computed tomography, is essential to make the diagnosis. We report a 63-year-old female studied for an asymptomatic microscopic hematuria whose tomographic study showed a bilateral renal papillary necrosis. No etiology was found, and she evolved with a spontaneous complete remission. |
