We report on a case of renal leiomyosarcoma whose presenting features were those of spontaneous perirenal hemorrhage (Wunderlich's syndrome). The low incidence of this disease entity, its severity and uncommon form of presentation which did not permit correct preoperative diagnosis of the underlying disorder have prompted us to report the present case.
