Prognosis
Treatment and prognosis Treatment depends on the specific trauma and complications present. [radiopaedia.org]
Spontaneous subcapsular hemorrhage in the liver is an uncommon condition associated with a poor prognosis. We report a case of a renal transplant recipient developing a spontaneous subcapsular hematoma of the liver. [journals.lww.com]
No contrast blush or hemoperitoneum Because of the absence of hemoperitoneum or active bleeding, this patient has a good prognosis and will be managed non-operatively. Splenic injury. [radiologyassistant.nl]
Etiology
The main determinants in the treatment are patient’s hemodynamic status and the etiology. [omicsonline.org]
Other etiologies include rupture of renal artery or an arteriovenous malformation, polyarteritis nodosa, cystic medial necrosis, segmental arterial mediolysis, and cystic rupture.Few case series suggested angiomyolipoma as the most common cause. [ citation [en.wikipedia.org]
Regardless of the etiology, however, the selection of a minimally invasive approach, like arterial embolization, resulted in preservation of both renal units and an uneventful recovery. [jmedicalcasereports.biomedcentral.com]
Etiology Blunt trauma from motor vehicle collisions, falls, and personal collisions are the leading cause of renal injury ( 85%), the mechanism is from deceleration injuries from a collision of the kidney with the vertebral column or thoracic cage. [radiopaedia.org]
Bleeding abnormalities are common in patients with end-stage renal disease, and the etiology of uremic bleeding in these patients is multifactorial, involving all three steps of hemostasis: platelet adhesion, granule release, and platelet aggregation. [consultant360.com]
Epidemiology
Epidemiology of renal trauma: In blunt abdominal trauma, up to 40% present with renal injury. In urban areas, 80% of renal injuries occur in the context of polytrauma. In ski resorts, 2/3 of renal injuries are due to skiing accidents. [urology-textbook.com]
Pathophysiology
In year 1976, Twersky et al. reported the first case of urinoma caused by a bladder tumor. [4] Second patient had a high-grade bladder tumor with ureteric orifice involvement. [3] The pathophysiology of forniceal rupture caused by bladder tumor is difficult [indianjcancer.com]
