Abstract:
Total severance of renal pedicle by blunt trauma to the abdomen is relatively rare and mainly leads to a fatal result by hypovolemic shock. We report the two cases of a 35 and a 20-year-old men with survival. They had blunt trauma on their right flank area by fall down from a driving cultivater and a steep hill 3 meters high in drunken state, respectively. We identified totally severed renal artery and vein to have been hemostatic by thrombosis at explorative laparatomy.
