Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Appropriate management of renal trauma is controversial. The purpose of this study is to present our 5-year experience in renal trauma and review the literature. MATERIALS AND METHODS:From 1999 to 2003, 28 patients were identified with renal injuries. 25 (89.3%) of the injuries were caused by blunt trauma, 2 (7.1%) by stab wounds, and 1 (3.6%) by gunshot wound. Methods for diagnosis included ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT), diagnostic peritoneal lavage (DPL), combinations of more than one technique or no one of them. The English-language literature about renal trauma was also identified using Medline, and additional cited works not detected in the initial search obtained. RESULTS:18 patients underwent immediate or during 24 h operation; while 5 nephrectomies were performed. 11 patients with grade I to III injuries were selected for nonoperative management of renal injuries. All complications were noted and studied according to the initial therapeutic management and grade. Follow-up was clinical and radiological. 3 postoperative deaths were observed. CONCLUSION:The goals of treatment of renal injuries include accurate staging and minimal complications. Surgery can be avoided in most cases of blunt renal injury but there is also a trend towards conservative management of penetrating trauma. Nephrectomy is associated with high-grade renal injuries, while minor renal injuries can safely be managed conservatively.
