Spontaneous retroperitoneal hemorrhage can originate from kidney tumors, such as adenocarcinoma. Prompt diagnosis via CT scans and surgical intervention like nephrectomy are crucial for effective treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Oncology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Spontaneous retroperitoneal hemorrhage (SRH) is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition.
  • Understanding the diverse etiologies of SRH is critical for timely diagnosis and management.

Observation:

  • Two cases of SRH secondary to ruptured renal adenocarcinoma are presented.
  • Both patients exhibited Lenk's triad, a classic clinical presentation.

Findings:

  • Computed tomography (CT) scans provided definitive diagnosis in both cases.
  • Nephrectomy was the chosen surgical intervention, leading to successful outcomes.

Implications:

  • Renal tumors should be considered in the differential diagnosis of unexplained SRH.

  • Treatment strategies for SRH must be tailored to the underlying etiology and patient's hemodynamic stability.
