Abstract: Bilateral renal pelvis rupture after minor blunt abdominal injuryis rare clinical occurrence. Itmay be challenging to arriveto the correct diagnosis since patient may not show any signs and symptoms of urologic or abdominal trauma. Diagnosis is usually achieved following a computed tomography scan (CT) which demonstrates the extravasation of the contrast in the peripelvic, perinephric, or retroperitoneal spaces. A 68-year-old male patient was admitted in our hospital complaining of abdominal and lumbar pain four days after a fall of his own height, a condition also accompanied by cardiac tachycardia and hypotension. Bilateral renal pelvis rupture was diagnosed and ureteral stents were implanted on both sides leading to complete healing.
