Renorrhaphy Using Knitted Polyglycolic Acid Mesh

Abstract
Surgical techniques for treatment of penetrating trauma to the kidney have ranged from simple drainage to nephrectomy, depending on the severity of the injury. Based upon successful experience in the surgical management of splenic injuries using knitted polyglycolic acid mesh, we report a case in which absorbable mesh was used to repair a laceration of the kidney.
