[Initial experience of renal autotransplantation in a child with ureteric rupture secondary to abdominal blunt trauma].

A 8-year-old child with multiple skeletal injuries after car accident is presented in the article. Extensive right-sided urohematoma with impaired kidney function was diagnosed after 15 days. External drainage of urohematoma, ureteroscopy and examination of the right kidney were consecutively performed within 1.5 months. A complete rupture of the right ureter at the level of pyeloureterostomy was diagnosed. Right kidney autotransplantation with ureteral resection and pyeloureteral anastomosis were performed in 2 months after injury. Duration of surgery was 7.5 hours, cold ischemia - 55 min. Postoperative examination confirmed satisfactory function of the right kidney. This observation is relatively rare and the first in Russia.
