Zusammenfassung:A case of postpartum spontaneous rupture of angiomyolipoma in a 27-year-old woman with the chief complaints of right flank pain and fever was reported. Physical examinations revealed an infant-head sized, hard elastic mass with a smooth surface in the right flank. Laboratory studies showed a decrease of Hb to 9.0 g/dl and Ht to 26.5%, and elevated LDH (2914 IU/l). Angiomyolipoma was suspected with ultrasonography, CT scan and angiography. Transperitoneal right nephrectomy was performed. The right kidney and tumor weighed 1,870 g. Pathological diagnosis also confirmed angiomyolipoma of the kidney.
