Abstract

If left untreated, renal subcapsular collections may result in renal atrophy. The diagnosis could be challenging at chronic stage due to recurrent episodes of hemorrhage which is the reason for the complex appearance of the collection. Herein we report a rare cause of renal atrophy in a 44-year-old man.
