Renovascular traumas are rare in abdominal blunt traumas, especially those involving complete avulsion of a renal artery. Their management poses a dilemma between blood flow preservation and the risks of bleeding. We present the case of a rare variant of renovascular injury, with a post traumatic ostial avulsion of a polar inferior renal artery, successfully treated percutaneously by endovascular aortic covered stenting under c-arm cone-beam computed tomography guiding.
