A 55-year-old female with a 12-mm calculus in the left pelvic ureter (arrow in A) suffered fever and anaemisation (7.8 g/dl haemoglobin) 48 h after ureteroscopic lithotripsy. Unenhanced (B) and multiphase contrast-enhanced (C, D) MDCT detected a sizeable subcapsular haematoma (*) causing moderate parenchymal compression and associated with blood effusion along the ipsilateral fasciae (+), without signs of active bleeding. Note the ureteral stent left in place intraoperatively. Conservative treatment included blood transfusions and prolonged hospitalisation
