Abstract:
Contribution of one case of Spontaneous Perirenal Haematoma (SPH) secondary to hydronephrosis accompanied by lithiasis in pelvic kidney. SPH can result from multiple causes, the most frequent ones being renal tumours, most particularly angiomyolipoma and hypernephroma. Hydronephrosis is an uncommon cause of SPH, and very few cases are described in the literature. The present paper addresses the diagnostic usefulness of the various radiological tests as well as the therapeutical approach to be followed.
