To analyze the incidence of renal trauma using the National Health Insurance Service Database (NHISD).Using the NHISD, representative of all upper urinary tract injuries in Korea, data regarding renal trauma were analyzed. The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision Clinical Modification codes were used to identify the diagnoses. The incidence estimates of renal traumas were analyzed using Poisson regression analysis. Risk factors for high-grade renal trauma were estimated using multivariable logistic regression analyses.Patients with renal trauma were identified from a nationwide database collected by the National Health Insurance Service of Korea between 2012 and 2016. Among 37,683 individuals with renal trauma, 1,293 (3.4%) were diagnosed with high-grade renal trauma. Surgical therapy was performed in 995 (2.6%) patients with renal trauma and 184 (14.2%) patients with high-grade renal trauma. Renal trauma occurred in all age groups, and the ratio between men and women was approximately 3:1. Men and women experienced 8,000 (31.82/100,000) and 2,365 (9.52/100,000) renal trauma in 2013 (total 10,365, 20.73/100,000) and 5,243 (20.56/100.000) and 2,168 (8.58/100,000) in 2016 (total 7,411, 14.60/100,000), respectively. In multivariable analysis, female sex, age (age; 41-60 and 61-80 years), and comorbidity of peripheral vascular disease, renal disease, and malignancy were revealed as risk factors for high-grade renal trauma.Annual incidence of renal trauma is 17.33 per 100,000 population from 2012 to 2016. The incidence of kidney damage decreased gradually from 2013 to 2016, and the majority of renal trauma cases were low-grade. Conservative management was the preferred treatment modality in most patients with renal trauma, including those with high-grade renal trauma. |
