A RARE CASE OF PEDIATRIC PELVIC ECTOPIC KIDNEY INJURY

Emrah Yakut, Kenan Öztorun.




Abstract

Pediatrik popülasyonda ise tüm abdominal künt travmaların %10-20'sinde ve penetran travmaların %3-4'ünde renal yaralanma meydana gelmektedir. Motorlu araç kazası sonucu künt batın travması geçiren 6 yaşındaki kız çocuğu hastanemiz acil servisinde değerlendirildi. Şiddetli sol yan ve karın ağrısı şikayeti vardı. Karın sol kadranlarda defans ve yine solda kostovertebral açı hassasiyeti saptandı. Abdomen bilgisayarlı tomografisi (BT) neticesinde sol pelvik ektopik böbrek ve bu böbrekte grade üç laserasyon saptandı. Hasta üroloji servisimize yatırıldı ve hemodinamik stabilite sağlandıktan sonra konservatif izleme karar verildi. Takiplerinde kliniği, vital bulguları ve laboratuar değerleri stabil seyreden hasta taburcu edildi. Sonuç olarak bu deneyimden yola çıkarak çocuk pelvik ektopik böbrek yaralanması tedavi yönetiminin, yaralanmanın sınıflamasına uygun olarak ortotopik böbrekler ile benzer şekilde yapılabileceği düşüncesindeyiz.

Renal injury occurs in 10-20% of all abdominal blunt traumas and 3-4% of penetrating traumas in the pediatric population. A 6-year-old girl who had blunt abdominal trauma as a result of a motor vehicle accident was evaluated in the emergency department of our hospital. She complained of a severe left flank and abdominal pain. Defensiveness was detected in the left quadrants of the abdomen and costovertebral angle tenderness was detected in the left. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) revealed a left pelvic ectopic kidney with a grade three laceration. The patient was admitted to our urology department, and conservative follow-up was decided after hemodynamic stability was achieved. During the follow-ups, clinical manifestations, vital signs, and laboratory values remained stable, the patient was discharged. In conclusion, based on this experience, we believe that the management of child pelvic ectopic kidney injury can be similar to that of orthotopic kidneys in accordance with the classification of the injury.

Key words: Akut böbrek hasarı, konservatif tedavi Acute kidney injury, conservative treatment
