Abstract EN

Wünderlich syndrome (WS) is a urological emergency characterized by retroperitoneal hemorrhage.

In most cases, bleeding occurs from a renal angiomyolipoma (AML) and may be the first manifestation of the disease.

We report a female patient with bilateral WS due to the metachronous rupture of renal AMLs.

Because the patient was stable and the tumor was not malignant, treatment was conservative.

Follow-up revealed the full recovery of kidney function and the resolution of the hematoma.
