However, management of the high-grade renal trauma remains controversial. Aim: To evaluate mode of renal injury, staging and its management outcomes. Materials and Methods: This prospective, observational study included 49 patients (>15 years of age) who presented with abdominal trauma. Computed tomography was performed for grading of renal trauma. The patients were stratified based on whether they underwent open renal surgery or conservative management for their renal injury. Demographic characteristics and a detailed history of renal injuries were recorded. The patients were evaluated based on the rate of renal preservation and complications at 6-month follow-up. Results: The mean age was 32.10 years and majority of the patients were males (87.76%). Blunt trauma (95.92%) was most frequently reported. According to American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST), 8 (16.33%) patients were categorized in grade I, 17 (34.69%) patients in grade II, 8 (16.33%) patients in grade III, 12 (24.49%) patients in grade IV, and 4 (8.16%) patients in grade V. Microscopic haematuria (42.86%) was the most common clinical presentation. The majority of the patients were managed conservatively (89.8%). Only two belonging to grade 4 and three from grade 5 were managed operatively due to haemodynamic instability. Rib fractures (n=10) were the most frequently associated injury, and Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) (n=8) was the most common complication, followed by persistent haematuria (n=3), and hypertension (n=3). All patients with grades I to III showed 100% renal preservation rate with conservative management. However, patients with grades IV and V showed renal preservation rate of 83.33% and 50%, respectively. Conclusion: Conservative treatment is a preferred choice of treatment in the most of the renal trauma. The present study reported high renal preservation rate in low-grade renal injuries, which were managed conservatively. However, there is still need of surgical treatment in high grade haemodynamically unstable patients.","PeriodicalId":56235,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71263991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cystic Artery (CA) should be ligated prior to removal of gallbladder during cholecystectomy. CA arises from Right Hepatic Artery (RHA) posterolateral to common hepatic duct inside Calot’s triangle but variations of CA are very common. If surgeons fail to identify these variations during cholecystectomy, this artery is more prone to iatrogenic injury leading the profuse bleeding. Aim: To study the variations of CA in terms of its origin, number, length, course and its relation with the biliary ductal system and Calot’s triangle. Materials and Methods: The present cross-sectional study was conducted in the department of Anatomy, Government Tiruvannamalai Medical College, Tamil Nadu, India from August 2019 to July 2022. Forty adult cadaveric liver specimens with intact vasculature of gallbladder were dissected and the variations of CA were noted. Length of CA was measured by using Vernier caliper, and it’s descriptive statistics like range, mean, Standard Deviation (SD) were evaluated by using Microsoft excel 2019 software. Results: The CA arose from RHA in 33 (82.5%), from replaced RHA in 2 (5%), from Left Hepatic Artery (LHA) in 2 (5%), from Proper Hepatic Artery (PHA) in 2 (5%), and from Common Hepatic Artery (CHA) in 1 (2.5%) specimens. Its mean length ±SD was 2.6±0.35 cm. CA was single in 39 specimens (97.5%) (38 single CA inside Calot’s triangle, one single CA was outside of Calot’s triangle). Double cystic arteries were seen in only one specimen (2.5%) and forming compound type of relation with Calot’s triangle (one CA was outside of Calot’s triangle and the other one was inside of that triangle) in it. CA was superomedial to Cystic Duct (CD) in 34 (85%) specimens. This artery was passing anterior and posterior to common hepatic duct in 6 (15%) and 2 (5%) specimens, respectively.

However, DJS placements are known to be associated with various consequences and complications. Hereby, the authors present a case of a 46-year-old male who presented to the Emergency Department with left flank pain and haematuria that had persisted for one week. The patient had previously undergone ureteric stenting one year prior for the management of a left ureteric calculus. Unfortunately, he had not returned for follow-up due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. X-ray of the Kidney, Ureter, and Bladder (KUB) and Computed Tomography (CT) of the KUB revealed a missed left ureteral stent that was completely encrusted and associated with the highest stone burden. This stent was causing obstruction of the left renal pelvis-calyceal system and thinning of the left renal parenchyma. The patient also had a co-existing staghorn calculus and urinary tract infection. After completing a course of antibiotics, the encrusted ureteral stent was surgically removed using cystolitholapaxy with pneumatic lithotripsy, ureteral lithoclast, and percutaneous nephrolithotomy. A new DJS was placed to maintain drainage through the ureter. The patient had no complications during the follow-up period. Authors reported a case of a missed DJS with the highest stone burden within a year to highlight the importance of patient and family education. Authors recommended implementing electronic follow-up systems for patients who undergo ureteric stenting to prevent lost to follow-up, minimise long-term complications, and ensure patient safety.","PeriodicalId":56235,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135445021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
