Traumatic rupture of massive hydronephrosis requires prompt diagnosis using clinical signs, fluid analysis, and ultrasonography. Surgical intervention leads to satisfactory outcomes with no long-term complications in patients with kidney swelling.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • Massive hydronephrosis can lead to traumatic rupture.
  • Ruptured hydronephrosis presents diagnostic challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report on the diagnosis and management of traumatic rupture of massive hydronephrosis.
  • To evaluate the outcomes of surgical treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of twelve cases.
  • Diagnostic criteria included loin injury, peritonitis, decreased fluid pH, elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and ultrasonographic findings.
  • Treatment was tailored to the underlying cause of hydronephrosis.

Main Results:

  • Key diagnostic indicators were identified.
  • All patients underwent surgical treatment.

  • A satisfactory overall cure rate was achieved.

    • Conclusions:

    • Traumatic rupture of massive hydronephrosis can be effectively diagnosed using specific clinical and diagnostic parameters.
    • Surgical management offers a high cure rate.
    • Long-term follow-up (12 years) showed no significant sequelae.
