Abstract

The omentum is unique in that it is the body tissue developed for the resolution of local inflammatory processes because of combination of its blood supply and abundant lymphatic drainage. Thus, the use of omentum is well established for the more complex reconstruction of the urinary tract. We managed 3 cases of multiple severe renal injury using omentum and results were favorable.
