Both side pain and urinary system pathologies are common reasons for admission to emergency departments. Spontaneous renal pelvic rupture is also very rare. Existing renal anomalies and calculi also increase the risk of rupture. Here, we present a 50-year-old male case who developed unilateral renal pelvis rupture spontaneously without trauma.
