“Beyond saving lives”: Current perspectives of interventional radiology in trauma

Figure 10 Renovascular injury: 35 years old male with blunt trauma abdomen. A, B: CECT abdomen showed deep lacerations involving the interpole of right kidney extending upto the renal hilum (asterisk). A pseudoaneurysm (arrow) was seen arising from upper polar branch alongwith presence of perinephric hematoma; C, D: DSA with catheterisation of right main renal artery confirmed the presence of pseudoaneurysm (arrow); E: In view of end arterial supply, involved branch was selectively accessed and catheter was subsequently manipulated across the neck of PsA with the help of microwire followed by deployment of coil; F: Post embolization angiography showed non opacification distal to the coil (arrow). CECT: Contrast enhanced computed tomography; PsA: Pseudoaneurysm; DSA: Digital subtraction angiography.
