Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical application of superselective renal artery embolization for the treatment of traumatic renal hemorrhage. Methods Thirty eight patients with traumatic renal hemorrhage were first demonstrated by renal arterigraphy under seldinger technique to ensure the rupture site and degree of renal artery and then followed by percutaneous cathetherized superselective renal arterial embolization through guidance of super slippery guide wire with gelfoam particles or steel coil. Results All 38 patients revealed occlusive abruption of bleeding arteries and disappearance of vextravasation staining after the superselective catheterized renal arterial embolization with gelfoam particles and steel spring coil under DSA. Clinically, all patients urine turned clear without macroscopic hematuria during 1 - 3 days after the procedure. Conclusions Superseclective renal arterial embolization is less aggressive and simultaneously with less complications, good hemostatic efficacy, maximal preservation of renal tissue and function for renal traumatic hemorrhage, which is worthy to be recommended.
