Spontaneous renal subcapsular hematoma in patients undergoing hemodialysis is a very uncommon condition that is attributed to acquired cystic disease of the kidneys and other causes. We report on a patient undergoing hemodialysis due to chronic renal failure who developed right spontaneous perirenal subcapsular hematoma ascribable to no underlying pathology. Treatment was by nephrectomy.
