Endovascular management of arterial injuries after blunt or iatrogenic renal trauma

Abstract: The kidney is the third most common abdominal organ to be injured in trauma, following the spleen and liver, respectively. The most commonly used classification scheme is the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) classification of blunt renal injuries, which grades renal injury according to the size of laceration and its proximity to the renal hilum. Arteriovenous fistula and pseudoaneurysm are the most common iatrogenic biopsy-related or surgery-related vascular injuries in native kidneys. The… Show more

“…In recent years, even grade V renal traumas, historically treated with an open approach, are shifting towards a minimally invasive management. Several clinical criteria have been proposed to evaluate the opportunity to use renal embolization to deal with such high-grade injuries, as AAST grade, mechanism of injury, patient clinical stability and concomitant other organs injuries [ 37 ]. Surgery should be reserved in case of incontrollable hemorrhage, renal pedicle avulsion, and expanding uncontained hematoma of retroperitoneum.…”

“…Temporary clipping of the nephrostomy tube, application of hemostatic drugs, and blood transfusion are necessary conservative treatment measures [ 4 ]. It is recommended that angiography and embolization be performed by conservative treatment as early as possible in patients with severe hemorrhage [ 5 7 ].…”
