Summary

A retroperitoneal mass was likely caused by a subcapsular renal hematoma that ruptured and spread into the retroperitoneal space. This traumatic genesis explains the mass

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Radiology
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • Retroperitoneal masses can present diagnostic challenges.
  • Traumatic etiologies for retroperitoneal masses are less common but important to consider.

Observation:

  • A case of a retroperitoneal mass was observed.
  • The mass showed specific clinical and imaging evolution over time.

Findings:

  • Imaging and clinical data suggested a traumatic origin.
  • The proposed genesis involved a subcapsular renal hematoma from 2 years prior.
  • The hematoma ruptured, expanding into the retroperitoneal space and superficializing in the left lumbar region.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering delayed complications of renal trauma.

  • Understanding the evolution of traumatic retroperitoneal masses aids in diagnosis and management.
  • Further investigation into the long-term sequelae of renal hematoma rupture is warranted.
