A case report of giant hamartoma of both kidneys with spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage in a pregnant woman: A case report.

The aim of the present study was to describe a case of renal angiomyolipoma (RAML) in a 31-year-old woman who presented with massive hemorrhage, shock, severe anemia (Hb 63 g-l) and multiple lesions, prior to delivery of a dead fetus. A 31-year-old woman was admitted due to left flank and abdominal pain at 20 weeks of gestation age, and diagnosed with RAML complicated with spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage of the left kidney, for which emergency exploratory laparotomy, left kidney resection and splenectomy were performed. The patient delivered a dead fetus 3 days following surgery and recovered well postoperatively. Hemorrhagic RAML during pregnancy is a rare and complex vascular surgical emergency, and should be managed in a multidisciplinary manner. Spontaneous rupture is a serious threat to the life and health of pregnant women and fetuses. The present case is a typical example of RAML in a pregnant woman complicated by spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage, which highlights the importance of determining the risk of acute hemorrhage in early stages of pregnancy, and the significance of time and proper management. However, in cases of shock caused by spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage, the only way to save the life of the patient is to resect the lesion without delay.
