This case report presents an uncommon instance of spontaneous rupture of the renal artery due to Wegner Granulomatosis which is an infrequent autoimmune disorder distinguished by the presence of granulomatous inflammation, primarily impacting the upper and lower respiratory tracts, along with renal involvement. The occurrence of spontaneous renal artery rupture in patients with Wegener's granulomatosis is a rare complication, as evidenced by the limited number of reported cases in the existing literature. The present case underscores the difficulties associated with the diagnosis and treatment of an uncommon complication while emphasizing the significance of timely intervention in achieving a positive outcome.
