title: [Etiology, diagnosis and treatment of spontaneous ruptures of the kidney (author's transl)].
abstract: Spontaneous ruptures of the kidney occur seldom. As a rule they are observed in impaired organs. According to the various underlying diseases the symptomatology can differ widely. Etiology and pathogenesis often become clear only after surgical exposure of the kidney. Our own observation of such a case lead us to review the causes as well as the diagnosis and treatment of spontaneous ruptures of the kidney. For clinical purposes we propose a classification into spontaneous ruptures of the kidney with perirenal hematoma and spontaneous ruptures of the pelviocalyceal system.
