Abstract

Tumor lysis syndrome is a complication that usually occurs at the beginning of antineoplastic treatment, being the cases of spontaneous appearance very rare and even less associated with solid tumors.
We present the case of a 69-year-old male with the constitutional syndrome and the presence of multiple hepatic micronodules, evolving rapidly and progressively to a spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome.
