title: Conservative management of renal stab wound by double-J ureteral stent and specific percutaneous arterial embolization.
abstract: We report on the conservative management of a renal stab wound by double-J stenting and specific percutaneous arterial embolization in a 34-year-old man. Surgical exploration was avoided because there was a little doubt about the associated intra-abdominal injuries. Recovery was excellent and the patient left the hospital 2 weeks later.
