Abstract
-
Spontaneous rupture of the kidney is a relatively uncommon disease. It occurs secondary to various kinds of underlying disease such as infection, hydronephrosis, calculous disease, benign or malignant tumor, renal artery aneurysm and arteriosclerosis. Recently we experienced a case of spontaneous rupture of the adult polycystic kidney with ureteral calculi in 45 years old male.
