Jogging - Induced Spontaneous Peri - Renal Hemorrhage
نویسندگان
چکیده
Spontaneous peri-renal hemorrhage (SPH) was first described in 1856 by Carl Wünderlich, a German physician, who identified a non-traumatic renal hemorrhage confined to the subcapsular and peri-renal space [1]. Most of the time, the clinical symptoms of SPH are nonspecific (flank pain and/or abdominal mass), necessitating imaging studies. The overall sensitivity of CT scans in detection of SPH can reach up to 100% [2]. The most common etiologies are tumors, mainly angiomyolipoma (AML), followed by renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Among other etiologies are vascular entities such as polyarteritis nodosa and Wegener angeitis [1-3]. Few cases were labeled as idiopathic when the etiology could not be determined [4].
