Fig. 2A Renal contusion and segmental arterial injury in two patients with blunt trauma. 43-year-old woman after fall from height. Enhanced CT scan reveals bilateral ill-defined foci of diminished enhancement, consistent with renal contusions (arrows). Note perinephric hematoma on right (arrowheads).

Fig. 2B Renal contusion and segmental arterial injury in two patients with blunt trauma. 22-year-old man after fall from height. Enhanced CT scan reveals sharply demarcated perfusion defect, presumably due to segmental arterial injury. Note retroperitoneal hematoma in retrocaval region (arrow).

Fig. 3B Deep parenchymal injuries in two patients with renal trauma. 28-year-old woman after gunshot wound. Nephrographic phase CT scan reveals linear cleft in medial aspect of right kidney and surrounding hematoma. Densities in hematoma (black arrows) reflect active arterial bleeding. Small locules of gas in right paraspinal muscles (white arrows) are related to track of shotgun wound.

Fig. 5B 45-year-old woman with perinephric fluid who was involved in motor vehicle collision. Late excretory phase image shows that perinephric fluid is combination of hematoma and extravasated urine.

Fig. 6A Traumatic renal arterial and venous injury in two patients. 23-year-old man with vascular pedicle injury after motorcycle collision. Nephrographic phase CT scan shows near total absence of enhancement in left kidney. Left renal artery (arrow) terminates abruptly. There was also left perinephric hematoma as well as hemoperitoneum from associated splenic injury (not shown).

Fig. 6B Traumatic renal arterial and venous injury in two patients. 52-year-old man after blunt trauma during karate practice resulting in traumatic left renal vein thrombosis. Contrast-enhanced CT scan shows large filling defect (white arrows) in left renal vein. Also note relatively delayed enhancement of left kidney, which is still in corticomedullary phase, compared with right kidney, which already shows some contrast excretion into collecting system (black arrow). Left kidney is enlarged, and perinephric fluid and stranding are present.

Fig. 7 42-year-old woman with bleeding from left renal angiomyolipoma after motor vehicle collision. Contrast-enhanced CT scan shows large exophytic mass containing fat (white arrow) and multiple foci of contrast extravasation (black arrows). Note surrounding hematoma and anterior displacement of kidney.

Fig. 8 Right ureteral injury as a complication of hysterectomy in 51-year-old woman. Delayed axial image from CT urography shows jet of contrast material (arrow) extending from injured right ureter. Large amount of urinomatous ascites is present, with some layering of contrast material present dependently in pelvis.

Fig. 9A 34-year-old man with extraperitoneal bladder rupture after motor vehicle collision. Extraluminal bladder contrast is not seen when there is passive filling of bladder with excreted IV contrast material but is visualized well when bladder is actively distended on CT cystogram. Delayed axial image from contrast-enhanced CT of pelvis shows excreted contrast material (and Foley catheter balloon) in bladder as well as small amount of surrounding fluid (arrows), but no extraluminal contrast material is detected. Note that bladder appears quite distended.

Fig. 9B 34-year-old man with extraperitoneal bladder rupture after motor vehicle collision. Extraluminal bladder contrast is not seen when there is passive filling of bladder with excreted IV contrast material but is visualized well when bladder is actively distended on CT cystogram. CT cystograms show extraperitoneal rupture and large amount of contrast material in prevesical space and extending into superficial soft tissues.

Fig. 10A Intraperitoneal bladder injury and complex extraperitoneal bladder injury in two patients. 75-year-old woman with intraperitoneal bladder rupture after motor vehicle collision. CT cystogram shows defect in anterior bladder wall (arrow) as well as intraperitoneal contrast material outlining pelvic peritoneal reflections.

Fig. 11B Various types of urethral trauma in three patients. 23-year-old man after motor vehicle collision. Pericatheter voiding cystourethrogram obtained a few days after admission shows leakage of urine above urogenital diaphragm (type 2 injury, arrow). Note left pubic fractures and pear-shaped bladder caused by presence of surrounding hematoma.
