Abstract
In 11 of 21 patients with penetrating renal injury operated on during a year, salvage of the involved kidney or part of it was successful. We conclude that accurate diagnosis and staging of penetrating renal trauma, when combined with a conservative surgical approach, allows salvage of functional renal parenchyma in a large proportion of cases.
