| | | ABSTRACT |  |
: Blunt trauma by motor vehicle accidents and falls, followed by penetrating injuries comprise the common mechanisms of renal injury. Unilateral Penetrating Renal Trauma (UPRT) is extremely rare. Here, we reported a unique case of Right Penetrating Renal Trauma (RPRT). A nine-year-old male child, with a 124 cm height and 30 kg weight without any medical history, had a history of falling down from tree with right side penetrating abdominal injury. On admission, patient was vitally stable. Patient had macroscopic haematuria with haemoglobin count of 10 gm/dL, creatinine 1.2 mg/dL. The Computed Tomography (CT) demonstrated right-sided penetrating renal injuries by some foreign material perinephric haematoma with surrounding air foci with renal vascular pedicle injury. An emergency exploratory laparotomy was executed immediately. According to the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) organ injury scale grading system, it was considered grade IV renal injury. Nephrectomy was done. Piperacillin and tazobactam was injected to prevent bacterial infection. The postoperative course was uneventful. Patient was discharged after seven days without any complications.
