High Grade Blunt Renal Trauma: Predictors of Surgery and Long-Term Outcomes of Conservative Management. A Prospective Single Center Study

摘要

Purpose: The management of major renal trauma has shifted in the last decade in favor of a nonoperative approach. Our level 1 trauma center promotes this approach with the objective of renal function preservation. However, certain situations still require surgery. In this study we analyze predictors of surgery and long-term outcomes after conservative management.
