Abstract

Renal sinus hematoma is a rare complication of anticoagulant therapy. Prognosis is usually excellent with spontaneous regression. The authors report a case of spontaneous bilateral renal sinus hematoma in a 59-year-old woman, treated by anticoagulants for a cardiac disease. Diagnosis and follow-up are made using computed tomography.
