Loin pain hematuria syndrome

Abstract

Loin pain hematuria syndrome occurs primarily in young women and is manifested by recurrent loin pain, hematuria, and abnormal renal vasculature. This syndrome was first described in 1967 by Little in the British literature. Since that time, approximately 60 cases have been reported. In this paper, we describe a case and provide a pertinent review of the literature concerning diagnosis and treatment.
