Spontaneous Rupture of Renal Pelvis

چکیده
Spontaneous renal pelvis rupture is a rare situation. It is nearly always related to underlying renal abnormalities caused by calculus, infection, tumor or pregnancy, resulting in hydronephrosis. In some situations, it is iatrogenic, such as fluid overload during diagnostic or therapeutic interventions. Here, we present a case of spontaneous renal pelvis rupture with no predisposing factor found. [International Journal of Gerontology 2007; 1(3): 131–133]
