Spontaneous intraperitoneal renal rupture with urinoma formation in the fetus.

ABSTRACT

Spontaneous intraperitoneal renal rupture with urinoma formation in fetuses is an unusual condition that is caused by upper or lower urinary tract obstruction. We report the case of a neonatal male infant who presented with a spontaneous intraperitoneal right renal rupture accompanying ipsilateral ureterovesical junction obstruction (UVJO). Fetuses with UVJO accompanying contralateral multicystic dysplastic kidney should be observed carefully because of the risk of spontaneous renal rupture.
