Abstract
Renal vascular injuries are a well-recognized but rare complication of blunt abdominal trauma. Lacerations and avulsion usually require surgical exploration. The treatment of renal artery thrombosis is controversial. Branched injuries usually are treated by observation. Injuries to the main renal artery are treated by either attempted revascularization or observation. In this review, we will discuss the diagnosis and management of complete renal artery thrombosis.Entities:
