Subepithelial hematoma of kidney pelvis and ureter: Antopol-Goldman lesion

The subepithelial hematoma of the renal pelvis and ureter was described by Antopol and Goldman in 1948. Hematuria and filling defect in the renal pelvis are the most consistently recurring clinical and radiological findings. Only 21 cases were found in the literature on the subject and all of them were treated surgically, usually with partial or total nephrectomy. Here we present a case of Antopol-Goldman lesion which was treated conservatively.
