title: [Traumatic renal vein thrombosis].
abstract: Two female patients with left renal vein thrombosis are reported. In one case, the thrombosis was induced by preoperative selective renal vein phlebography for diagnosis of a perirenal tumor. The thrombosis was then detected intraoperatively. In the other case, the thrombosis was caused by traumatic avulsion. Predominantly, left renal vein thrombosis is treated conservatively. Both patients were operated, however. The operation of the first patient was indicated because of the operative tumor therapy. Relaparotomy of the second patient led to nephrectomy due to kidney contusion.
