abstract="OBJECTIVE: This study reviews the clinical features, methods and treatment of renal trauma (RT). METHODS: The epidemiological study was conducted using data from 340 cases of RT that had been treated in the Department of Urology of the Marqués de Valdecilla University Hospital in Santander. All the information was filed in a data base specifically for the purpose. RESULTS: Statistical analyses of the data showed the incidence of the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of RT. CONCLUSIONS: Radiological and ultrasound evaluation are still fundamental for the diagnosis of RT. Only 4% of these patients have died. Abdominal, thoracic and cranial injuries cause the most severe lesions. Concerning treatment, only 17% of the cases with RT required surgery.<p /><p>Language: es</p>",
