ABSTRACT
A 72-year-old woman, with a history of stable effort angina, who was performed, after presenting a non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome, a conventional coronary angiography (invasive) that evidenced the multivessel coronary artery disease with significant stenosis of the left main coronary artery, therefore, a surgical treatment was decided. At 70 minutes she presented pain in the left side and ipsilateral lumbar region, nausea and vomiting. The initial physical examination evidenced a palpable, painful mass in the left side. The tomography showed the presence of a left subcapsular renal hematoma. To the acute abdomen pattern was added a hypovolemic shock, thus, the patient underwent surgery, confirming the tomographic diagnosis and performing a nephrectomy. This particular case presented predisposing factors for spontaneous and traumatic cause; however, based on the findings in the anatomopathological study, the conclusion was a renal subcapsular hematoma of traumatic origin.REFERENCES
