Introduction: Wünderlich's Syndrome is a spontaneous retroperitoneal haemorrhage characterised by sudden lumbar pain, tangible mass in the lumbar region and signs of hypovolaemic shock.
Case report: A 65 year-old female presented the classic triad indicating Wünderlich's syndrome. Imaging techniques with three-dimensional reconstruction enabled us to determine the diagnosis and aetiology, and aided in determining the treatment.
Discussion: We emphasise the importance of imaging methods in diagnosing and choosing treatment for Wünderlich s Syndrome.
