Introduction: Wünderlich syndrome (WS) refers to subcapsular, perirenal, or pararenal hemorrhage due to non-traumatic and iatrogenic conditions. Neoplasms, vascular disease, renal etiology, and anticoagulant use are underlying risk factors.
Case Report: We describe a case of WS in a 79-year-old male who was undergoing hemodialysis, which resulted in hemorrhagic shock requiring multiple transfusions and embolization by interventional radiology.
