Abstract

The kidney is the most common genitourinary organ injured from external trauma, occurring in 1% to 5% of all injuries1. Non operative management of renal injuries with renal salvage as the primary aim has gained much support in the past decades; though paediatric data is limited. Here we present a case of unilateral complete transection managed conservatively and the renal salvage was possible with retaining normal function
