Abstract

BACKGROUND

This paper reviews our experience with management of renal injuries in children and adolescents with a focus on the outcome of non-operative management (NOM).

METHODS

Retrospective review of the clinical characteristics, injury grade (I-III, low grade and IV and V high grade), management and outcomes of children ≤ 18 years old with renal trauma presenting to a major trauma centre in South Africa between December 2012 and October 2020.

RESULTS

Sixty-one children with a renal injury were identified with a median age of 13 (range 0-18) years. Forty-five were boys; blunt and penetrating mechanisms of trauma were sustained by 55 (90%) and six (10%) children, respectively. The median American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) grade of renal injury was 3 (range 1-5): this included eight (13%) with grade I, six (10%) with grade II, 17 (28%) with grade III, 20 (46%) with grade IV and 10 (16%) with grade V injuries. Forty children (66%) were successfully managed non-operatively and 21 required a laparotomy; of these six (28%) required nephrectomy. The overall renal salvage rate was 55/61 (90%). Children who required laparotomy were significantly more likely to have sustained a penetrating mechanism of injury (24% vs 2%) and have greater length of hospital stay (median 9 vs 3 days) compared to children managed non-operatively ( < 0.05). Children who underwent a nephrectomy had a significantly greater length of hospital stay (median 9 vs 4 days, = 0.03); however, their demographics, outcomes developed complications. Two children (3%) died; one managed non-operatively and one with a laparotomy.

CONCLUSION

Paediatric renal trauma can be successfully managed non-operatively in over two-thirds of cases in this middle-income country. High grade of renal injury does not absolutely predict need for surgery or nephrectomy and can be managed non-operatively.

摘要

背景

本文回顾了我们在儿童和青少年肾损伤管理方面的经验，重点介绍了非手术治疗（NOM）的结果。

方法

对 2012 年 12 月至 2020 年 10 月期间在南非一家主要创伤中心就诊的≤18 岁儿童肾外伤患者的临床特征、损伤分级（I-III 级，低级别和 IV 和 V 级，高级别）、治疗方法和结局进行回顾性分析。

结果

共确定 61 例肾损伤患儿，中位年龄 13 岁（范围 0-18 岁）。45 例为男性；55 例（90%）和 6 例（10%）患儿分别遭受钝性和穿透性创伤机制。美国外科医师协会（AAST）肾损伤分级的中位数为 3 级（范围 1-5 级）：包括 8 例（13%）I 级、6 例（10%）II 级、17 例（28%）III 级、20 例（46%）IV 级和 10 例（16%）V 级损伤。40 例（66%）患儿成功接受非手术治疗，21 例需要剖腹手术；其中 6 例（28%）需要肾切除术。整体肾保留率为 55/61（90%）。需要剖腹手术的患儿更有可能遭受穿透性损伤机制（24%比 2%），且住院时间更长（中位数 9 天比 3 天），与接受非手术治疗的患儿相比差异有统计学意义（<0.05）。接受肾切除术的患儿住院时间明显更长（中位数 9 天比 4 天，=0.03）；然而，他们的人口统计学特征、结局及并发症发展情况相似。2 例患儿（3%）死亡；1 例接受非手术治疗，1 例接受剖腹手术。
