A 9-year-old male child presented with deceleration injury after falling from a height of 12 feet. He had normal hemodynamic parameters with a pulse of 100/min and a BP of 100/70 mm Hg. Examination revealed a soft abdomen. The FAST exam done was positive. A contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) with oral and IV contrast revealed a completely devascularized right kidney []. As the patient had pain and hematuria, a laparotomy was performed 6 days after injury and the right kidney showed infarction, so a right nephrectomy was done. He had an uneventful postoperative period and went home on postoperative day 6.
A 35-year-old male presented with blunt abdominal trauma after an RTA along with injury to left lower limb. His hemodynamic parameters were normal, with a pulse of 100/min and a BP of 110/70 mm Hg. He had generalized abdominal tenderness and guarding. The FAST exam was positive, and X-ray revealed a left shaft of femur fracture. CT with IV contrast revealed no enhancement in both kidneys in the arterial phase suggestive of bilateral renal pedicle injury []. Endovascular stenting of both renal arteries was attempted unsuccessfully the next day after injury. Laparotomy was done 2 days after the injury due to the failure of endovascular stenting, and a right aortorenal artery polytetrafluoroethylene grafting was done on the right side. On the left side, a splenectomy was done, and the splenic artery anastomosed with the left renal artery. Patient underwent repeated dialysis in the postoperative period. His urine output returned to normal but after 4 days, he succumbed due to his injury. summarizes all the cases.
