Abstract

Spontaneous subcapsular renal hematoma is a rare complication with potentially fatal effects in clinical practice. We discuss a case of a patient who arrived at the emergency room with abrupt onset flank discomfort and hematuria. The damaged kidney was effectively embolized by interventional radiology, and the patient quickly recovered. Follow-up tests revealed that the hematoma had shrunk in size. We believe that early arterial embolization should be explored in the care of patients with renal bleeding because it may enhance outcomes.
