Resumo: Spontaneous rupture of the urinary tract is a rare entity. It probably occurs due to increased pressure in the urinary tract and usually is associated with obstructive factors. We report a case of a patient who presented rupture of the upper urinary tract during computed tomography without any associated obstructive factor. We believe that this happened due to the distension of the urinary system in function of contrast infusion. Our case is interesting because of the unusual etiology of this clinical entity and alerts us to the risk of high intraluminal pressures during urological endoscopic procedures and image exams. In addition, curiously the patient presented spontaneous resolution without performing the treatment suggested in the literature, which is the placement of a double-J catheter.

Esta provavelmente ocorre devido ao aumento da pressão na via urinária e geralmente está associada a fatores obstrutivos. Nós relatamos o caso de um paciente que apresentou rotura do trato urinário superior durante a realização de tomografia computorizada sem qualquer fator obstrutivo associado. Nós acreditamos que isto aconteceu devido à distensão do sistema urinário em função da infusão de contraste. Nosso caso é interessante devido à etiologia não habitual desta entidade clínica e nos alerta sobre o risco de altas pressões intraluminais durante procedimentos endoscópicos urológicos e exames radiológicos. Além disso, curiosamente o paciente apresentou resolução espontânea sem realização do tratamento sugerido pela literatura, que é a colocação de um catéter duplo J.Associação Portuguesa de Urologia2019-01-19T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.24915/aup.35.3-4.59oai:oai.actaurologicaportuguesa.com:article/59Acta Urológica Portuguesa; Vol. 35 No. 3-4 (2018): July-September; October-December; 37-39Acta Urológica Portuguesa; v. 35 n. 3-4 (2018): Julho-Setembro; Outubro-Dezembro; 37-392387-04192341-4022reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPenghttp://www.actaurologicaportuguesa.com/index.php/aup/article/view/59https://doi.org/10.24915/aup.35.3-4.59http://www.actaurologicaportuguesa.com/index.php/aup/article/view/59/46Copyright (c) 2018 Portuguese Association of Urologyinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBaccaglini, WillyPazeto, Cristiano LinckLopes Neto, Antonio Corrêa2022-09-21T09:04:46ZPortal AgregadorONG
