RESUMO
Spontaneous suburothelial hemorrhage (SSH), also known as Antopol Goldman lesion, is a rare condition characterized by spontaneous bleeding into the renal sinus and proximal ureter wall. This case report describes the clinical presentation, imaging findings, and management of SSH in a 20-year-old female initially suspected to have urothelial malignancy. Imaging features of SSH include pre-contrast hyperdensity and non-enhancing thickening of the pelviureteric wall, which can mimic transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) and lead to unnecessary interventions. Radiologists should maintain a high level of suspicion for SSH and be aware of its imaging characteristics to avoid misdiagnosis. Additionally, clinical data, such as bleeding dyscrasia, can aid in the imaging diagnosis. This report provides insights into the diagnosis and management of SSH while offering a comprehensive literature review on its clinical presentation and imaging features. Increased awareness of SSH will facilitate accurate diagnosis and appropriate management, avoiding unnecessary interventions for patients with this benign condition.
