Spontaneous rupture of the renal pelvis due to metastatic disease is a rare complication. Renal pelvis rupture often goes undiagnosed in cases of non-traumatic origin due to its vague abdominal and flank symptoms. We present a case of an 81-year-old male with primary non-small cell lung cancer who had renal pelvis rupture due to extrinsic compression of the ureter by retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy secondary to metastatic disease.
转移性疾病导致的肾盂自发性破裂是一种罕见的并发症。由于其腹部和侧腹症状不明确,肾盂破裂在非创伤性病因的病例中常常未被诊断出来。我们报告一例81岁男性原发性非小细胞肺癌患者,其因转移性疾病继发的腹膜后淋巴结病对输尿管的外在压迫而发生肾盂破裂。
