Abstract

This is a case report of 45-year-old female patient who presented with right flank pain. Abdominopelvic CT scan showed right renal pelvis stone measuring 20 mm. Right flexible ureterorenoscopy with holmium laser was performed in our institute. Postoperatively, she was febrile and pale. Immediate Abdominopelvic CT scan was obtained which revealed a large right subcapular hematoma. Conservative management was maintained for a week. Two months later, repeated Abdominopelvic CT scan showed regression of right subcapsular renal hematoma with stone fragments migration into the perinephric space as a first presentation in the world.
