Urinary collecting system rupture is an uncommon condition that usually occurs with symptoms of acute abdomen, secondary to peritoneal irritation by urine leaking. We report a case of a 49-year-old man admitted to our emergency department because of a worsening deep lower abdominal pain started 3 days before. The abdominal computed tomography revealed urine extravasation suggesting for urinoma. Because of patient pathological history of lymphoma, despite its apparent state of remission, he underwent a positron emission tomography - computed tomography with [F]-FDG and magnetic resonance in order to rule out a recurrence. Imaging supported the diagnostic hypothesis of a lymphatic recurrence that had compressed "ab-extrinseco" the urinary tract so much to break it. Based on our experience we can suggest that nontraumatic calyceal-pelvic rupture is an extremely rare manifestation of an onset of lymphoma.
泌尿系统破裂是一种罕见的病症,通常伴有急腹症症状,继发于尿液渗漏引起的腹膜刺激。我们报告一例49岁男性患者,因3天前开始出现的下腹部深部疼痛加重而入住我院急诊科。腹部计算机断层扫描显示尿液外渗,提示尿瘤形成。由于患者有淋巴瘤病史,尽管目前处于明显的缓解状态,但为排除复发,他接受了[F]-FDG正电子发射断层扫描-计算机断层扫描和磁共振检查。影像学检查支持淋巴系统复发的诊断假设,即复发的淋巴瘤从“外部”严重压迫尿路,导致尿路破裂。根据我们的经验,我们认为非创伤性肾盂-肾盏破裂是淋巴瘤发病的一种极其罕见的表现形式。
