Perinephric urinoma following spontaneous renal rupture in the third trimester of pregnancy: a case report and brief review of the literature

Imaging of an exceptional urinoma complicating a cervical cancer and leading to death: A case report

Spontaneous urinoma is a rare urological complication that can occur following acute urinary obstruction. It involves a collection of urine that typically forms around the kidney as a result of rupture of the fornix. There are several causes of acute urinary stasis, including lithiasis, tumors, prostatic hypertrophy, and others. We present a unique case of an asymptomatic spontaneous urinoma discovered incidentally during the extension study of a 66-year-old woman with cervical cancer. The positive diagnosis was made through a combination of ultrasound and uro-computed tomography scan. The evolution was marked by the occurrence of a uremic encephalopathy, leading to death before any treatment.

Spontaneous renal rupture caused by factor VII deficiency: A case report

RATIONALE

Spontaneous renal rupture is an uncommon disease, it usually occurs after upper urinary calculi-related operation treatment or renal tumor. This disease caused by factor VII deficiency has rarely reported.

PATIENT CONCERNS

A 49-year-old woman came to our hospital with on the left flank pain and gross hematuria that had persisted for 10 days. The patient had no recent history of waist and abdominal trauma or surgical history recently.

DIAGNOSES

An outside computed tomography (CT) examination revealed left renal rupture before arriving at our hospital, but she was not treated. Further laboratory examination revealed that the patient condition was turned out to be hemophilia caused by factor VII deficiency.

INTERVENTION

We have used both internal and external drainage methods, and supplemented with coagulation factor.

OUTCOME

After 9 months of follow-up, it was observed that the left renal hematoma and urinary extravasation was completely absorbed.

LESSONS

Spontaneous renal rupture for hemophilia is a clinical emergency. When spontaneous renal rupture is associated with abnormal coagulation function, and the coagulation function cannot be corrected by conventional treatment, the possibility of hemophilia needs to be considered, and the type of hemophilia needs to be further defined. This case indicates a successful resolution of spontaneous renal rupture, it can provide guiding value for our clinical practice.

A Spontaneous Renal Calyceal Rupture Mimicking Physiologic Changes of Pregnancy and Other Common Pathologies

A spontaneous renal calyceal rupture in pregnancy is extremely rare and can be challenging to identify as its presentation can mimic other more common diagnoses, which can lead to a delay in management. Here, we describe an unusual case of renal calyceal rupture in a 24-year-old G2P0010 female with pregnancy at 26.5 weeks gestation age (WGA) who was admitted to the antepartum ward due to left flank pain and uterine contractions. A renal sonogram was performed, which revealed severe left hydronephrosis and the absence of the ipsilateral ureteral jet. Urinalysis was within normal limits, and her renal function was preserved. Laboratories were remarkable for elevated liver enzymes. Finally, an abdominopelvic MRI revealed the culprit, a calyceal rupture. Once the diagnosis was clear, a double J-stent was inserted using limited fluoroscopy with the goal of reducing intrarenal pressure and decreasing disease morbidity. The patient's symptoms significantly improved after double J-stent placement and resolved the following day. The patient further developed preeclampsia with severe features, which has previously been documented to occur in pregnant patients with renal tract ruptures. The diagnosis of a renal calyceal rupture in pregnancy is not straightforward, in part because of a lack of awareness of this pathology. Nevertheless, early identification can prevent unnecessary interventions and adverse outcomes. Its diagnosis can be made with MRI, and its management with ureteral stent placement shouldn't be delayed, and its association with preeclampsia should be further explored.

Incidental Diagnosis of Right Renal Subcapsular Urinoma on an 18 F-FDG PET/CT Scan Performed for Staging of Cervical Cancer

ABSTRACT

A 53-year-old woman with cervical cancer underwent FDG PET/CT staging, which demonstrated an avid cervical mass with right parametrial involvement and presence of bilateral lymph node metastases. The right ureter was encased, resulting in obstruction and renal pelvic dilatation. Avid right renal subcapsular lesions were also noted, which were hyperintense on T2-weighted imaging compatible to encapsulated fluid collections. These lesions were diagnosed as subcapsular urinoma due to transmitted back pressure caused by obstruction of the right ureter.

Spontaneous Renal Rupture During Pregnancy: A Contemporary Literature Review and Guide to Management

Importance

Spontaneous renal rupture is a rare pregnancy complication, which requires a high index of suspicion for a timely diagnosis to prevent a poor maternal or fetal outcome.

Objective

This review highlights risk factors, pathophysiology, symptoms, diagnosis, management, and complications of spontaneous renal rupture in pregnancy.

Evidence Acquisition

A literature search was carried out by research librarians using the PubMed and Web of Science search engines at 2 universities. Fifty cases of spontaneous renal rupture in pregnancy were identified and are the basis of this review.

Results

The first case of spontaneous renal rupture in pregnancy was reported in 1947. Rupture occurs more commonly on the right side and during the third trimester. Pain was a reported symptom in every case reviewed. Treatment usually consists of stent or nephrostomy tube placement. Conservative management has been reported.

Conclusions

When diagnosed early and managed appropriately, maternal and fetal outcomes are favorable. Preterm delivery is the most common complication.

Relevance

Our aim is to increase the awareness of spontaneous renal rupture in pregnancy and its associated complications in order to improve an accurate diagnosis and maternal and fetal outcomes.

Spontaneous renal fornix rupture in pregnancy and the post partum period: a systematic review of outcomes and management

BACKGROUND

Spontaneous renal fornix rupture (SRFR) causing urinoma is an uncommon but serious condition in pregnancy. Limited information is available to describe the natural history and outcomes to guide appropriate treatment. The aim of this study was to determine the natural history and outcomes of SRFR to determine appropriate management recommendations.

METHODS

A systematic review of literature databases was performed, using the Meta-analysis Of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE) checklist from 1950 - April 2020. Inclusion criteria included any urinary extravasation from the kidney or ureter during pregnancy, or in the 8 weeks following delivery, confirmed via imaging or surgery. Haematomas and non-confirmed cases were excluded.

RESULTS

A total of 1579 records were originally identified, of which 39 case reports were appropriate for inclusion. SRFR was most commonly reported during the first pregnancy (72%), 19/30 during the third trimester and 9 in the post-natal period. All patients presented with pain, with haematuria positive on urine dipstick in only 36% of 26 reported cases. Ultrasound was the most frequently used imaging modality, resulting in a diagnosis in 42% of cases. All cases reported on treatment procedures including ureteric stents (46%), percutaneous drain (15%), conservative management (15%), nephrostomy (13%) and ureteral catherization (10%). Long term urological outcomes were positive, however women suffering SRFR were significantly more likely to undergo pre-term labour.

CONCLUSION

While selected cases may be successfully managed conservatively, urinary diversion, through ureteric stents, should be considered the management of choice in these individuals. Clinicians should be mindful of an increased risk of premature delivery and its' associated negative fetal outcomes.
