Core Tip	Renal trauma is frequently seen following blunt and penetrating injuries. Surgery, as a method of treatment, is frequently required in severe injuries, with most minor injuries managed conservatively. Apart from the surgical grading by the American Association, an imaging-based grading system is now frequently used and helps to decide further management. Multidetector computed tomography is now the imaging modality of choice and can depict even the severest injuries. Depending upon the imaging findings, patients may be taken for interventional procedures rather than surgery. The American Association for the Surgery of Trauma classification has been updated, with vascular injuries now included, denoting a Grade Ⅴ injury.
