Abstract
A 27-year-old man presented to the emergency department with sudden onset of massive
gross hematuria and urinary retention. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography
imaging showed uneven, dilated calices and a narrowing of the renal pelvis in the left
kidney; in addition, a large hematoma was noted in the urinary bladder. An emergency
cystoscopy was performed following detection of the hematoma and blood clots were
removed. A lesional biopsy, a tuberculosis (TB) culture, and urine cytology showed positive
results for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The clinical manifestations of genitourinary
tuberculosis are nonspecific and are usually detected at a chronic stage. In conclusion,
we report an unusual cause of acute kidney injury associated with a subacute
stage of genitourinary tuberculosis that caused mucosal erosion and bleeding in the
bladder.
