Abstract
A case of bilateral thrombosis of the renal arteries following blunt trauma is presented. The patient was a 12 yr old boy who was treated by chronic hemodialysis and subsequently renal transplantation. A review of the literature reveals only 8 such cases reported previously. The condition is unusual and requires early diagnosis because the success of renal vascularization is entirely dependent upon prompt timing of the operation.
