【 摘 要 】

As one of the most commonly injured organs in the genitourinary system during trauma, a thorough understanding of pediatric renal trauma's diagnosis and management is essential for physicians. The improvement of imaging modalities in recent years has shifted most treatments to a conservative approach. Non-operative management could reduce the risk of nephrectomy while increasing renal salvage rate. However, high-grade pediatric renal injury management remains controversial. We aimed to report two children with high-grade renal trauma, diagnosed using computed tomography and retrograde pyelography studies, undergoing different approaches. The first patient underwent a nephrectomy, whereas the second patient underwent non-operative management.
