“…In hemodynamically stable patients, clinical observation is accepted as the standard of care [5] . However, since spontaneous bleeding may hide a malignant process, some authors recommend surgical exploration in all cases [6,7] . If a kidney tumor is found to be the source of the bleeding, nephron-sparing surgery should be attempted when possible to preserve kidney function [8] .…”

Wünderlich’s syndrome is a spontaneous nontraumatic massive retroperitoneal hemorrhage. It is usually secondary to a renal neoplasm, with angiomyolipoma being the most frequent followed by renal cell carcinoma. The management of spontaneous retroperitoneal bleeding varies depending on the hemodynamic status of the patient. We present the first report of a transperitoneal laparoscopic nephrectomy in a patient with spontaneous retroperitoneal active bleeding secondary to a right renal mass.

“…Using this approach, Brkovic et al [11] were able to diagnose the underlying disease preoperatively in 13 of their 18 patients with SPH. When these radiographic studies fail to provide diagnostic information, meticulous surgical exploration including biopsy is often recommended [8,14,15] because of the high incidence of RCC.…”

“…Other causes of SPH include ruptured renal cyst [3], pheochromocytoma [4], adrenal apoplexy [4], renal cortical abscess [5], anticoagulation [6], and pregnancy and puerperium [7]. Recent reports estimate the incidence of renal carcinoma to be about 50% in instances of SPH [8][9][10].…”

Spontaneous perirenal hematoma (SPH) is a clinical entity that poses a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. We report a case of SPH in an adult where the cause could not be determined at first presentation, even with computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen and angiography. He was under close follow-up, and it was only with a repeat CT scan after 3 months that a mass lesion in the kidney was identified as the underlying cause. We also present a review of the literature so that a logical approach can be adopted for this problem.
