Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, the primary treatment for renal and ureteral stones, is an elective procedure with a low rate of complications, although most patients have macrohematuria which lasts for a few hours, and as many as 25% develop a renal or perirenal hematoma. Therefore, SWL is not performed during anticoagulant therapy, and any blood dyscrasias should be corrected prior to the procedure. We present a case of a patient who had an acute myocardial infarction after SWL, was treated with anticoagulation and emergency coronary angioplasty, and subsequently developed a life-threatening retroperitoneal hemorrhage. Cessation of anticoagulation with fluid support and drainage of a pleural effusion eventually resulted in complete recovery.
