Severe blunt renal injury after motorcycle accident: failure of the conservative management

We discuss the possibility at admission to select a subgroup of patients with a high grade (IV and V) kidney trauma in whom NOM might fail. KEY WORDS: Kidney Trauma, High grade renal trauma, Non operative management.PMID:34795113
