title: [Application of a peri-renal prosthesis (vicryl mesh) in the conservative treatment of multiple ruptured kidney fragments].
abstract: The authors report a series of seven patients suffering from severe trauma of the kidney, who were treated, after haemostasis and debridement, by wrapping the kidney in absorbable vicryl mesh. This perirenal prosthesis maintains the contused parenchymal fragments in contact with each other and ensures lasting haemostasis and recovery of normal renal function without cortical aschaemia or perirenal fibrosis.
