title: Subepithelial hematoma of the renal pelvis simulating neoplasm (Antopol-Goldman lesion).
abstract: Subepithelial hematoma of the renal pelvis (Antopol-Goldman lesion) is an extremely rare lesion. We report on a 55-year-old woman who presented with gross hematuria. It was incorrectly diagnosed as renal pelvic cancer and left radical nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff resection was performed. With awareness and high suspicion of Antopol-Goldman lesion in the radiographic differential diagnosis of a renal pelvic mass, this lesion can be treated conservatively or with partial nephrectomy.
