摘　　要：BACKGROUND Spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage of renal angiomyolipoma(RAML)is a lifethreatening clinical emergency.When it occurs during pregnancy,it is compared to a"bomb explosion,"which makes the diagnosis and treatment more challenging.An ultrasound examination is a quick and safe examination with the benefit of no radiation exposure,which is always preferred for pregnant women.Currently,cases of spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage of RAML during pregnancy are rare,as is the diagnostic value and characteristics of ultrasound.The lack of understanding of the condition among ultrasound doctors makes it prone to misdiagnosis.In this study,we present the case of a pregnant woman who was preliminarily diagnosed with spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage of the left RAML using ultrasound and discuss the ultrasound characteristics.CASE SUMMARY A 38-year-old woman in her 19 th wk of pregnancy(G2 P1)was referred to our clinic for a sudden,persistent pain on the left side of the waist.She had not undergone any previous related abdominal examination.Ultrasound of the urinary system revealed a giant nonhomogenous lump in the left kidney area.The diagnosis was considered spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage of the left RAML in pregnancy via ultrasound.Her left-side waist pain continued to be intense.Subsequently,she underwent computed tomography,which led to the same diagnosis.Based on many factors,the patient underwent left nephrectomy after the induction of labor.The pathological result was the rupture and hemorrhage of a vascular leiomyoma lipoma.CONCLUSION Ultrasound examination plays an important role in the diagnosis of the spontaneous rupture and hemorrhage of RAML during pregnancy.
