Abstract:
19 patients with blunt renal trauma who was checked renal angiography have been studied in the department of urology, national medical center, Catholic medical college and Seoul national university hospital , from Jan, 1976 to May. 1978. The results were followed; 1) Renal angiography was a best diagnostic procedure for a salvage of injured kidney. 2) If I. V. P. slowed abnormal findings in conservative management group, angiography was necessitated for the lesion diagnosed only with angiography. 3) In case of normal I. V. P. with stable vital sign, renal angiography was less helpful for treatment 4) In case of polar rupture and stable vital sign conservative management was more reliable therapy.
