Summary:Among the patients of a urological clinic, within 5 years 15 cases of spontaneous rupture of the renal calices with urinary extravasation were seen after infusion urograms. At 1.5% of the patients, they are rare. In two cases septicemia with endotoxin shock occurred as unusual complications and in two cases provocation or exacerbation of a pyelonephritis. The clinical picture is described in the case records. Pathophysiological problems, therapeutic possibilities and indications for infusion urography are discussed.
