OWN EXPERIENCE OF SURGICAL TREATMENT OF BLUNT RENAL TRAUMA

Abstract

37 patients with blunt renal trauma were surgery at our clinic between1989 and 2013 yrs. Basing on our own experience as well as generally accepted standards of treatment, we developed a tactic of treatment of this pathology. In daily work we used two classifications: proposed by the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) in 1989 and proposed by prof. S.A. Vozianov and prof. A.V. Shulyak in 2003. An analysis of the research was carried out; it demonstrates the efficacy of conservative treatment in patients with blunt renal trauma III-V grades according to AAST classification.
