AAST | AIS | Liver | Spleen | Kidney | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
I | 2 | Hematoma | Subcapsular, <10% surface area | Subcapsular, <10% surface area | Subcapsular hematoma and/or parenchymal contusion without laceration |
Laceration | Capsular tear, <1% parenchymal depth | Capsular tear, <1% parenchymal depth | |||
II | 2 | Hematoma | Subcapsular, 10–50% surface area, intra-parenchymal, <10 cm in diameter |
Subcapsular, 10–50% surface area Intra-parenchymal, <5 cm in diameter |
Perirenal hematoma confined to Gerota fascia |
Laceration | Capsular tear, 1–3 cm parenchymal depth, <10 cm length | 1–3 cm parenchymal depth | Renal parenchymal laceration ≤1 cm depth without urinary extravasation | ||
III | 3 | Hematoma | Subcapsular, >50% surface area of ruptured subcapsular or parenchymal hematoma; intraparenchymal >10 cm | Subcapsular, >50% surface area Ruptured subcapsular or parenchymal hematoma ≥5 cm |
|
Laceration | Capsular tear, >3 cm parenchymal depth | >3 cm parenchymal depth or involving trabecular vessels | Renal parenchymal laceration >1 cm depth without collecting system rupture or urinary extravasation | ||
Vascular | Vascular injury with active bleeding contained within liver parenchyma | Any injury in the presence of a kidney vascular injury or active bleeding contained within Gerota fascia | |||
IV | 4 | Laceration | Parenchymal disruption involving 25–75% of hepatic lobe or 1–3 segments | Parenchymal laceration involving segmental or hilar vessels producing >25% devascularization | Parenchymal laceration extending into urinary collecting system with urinary extravasation Renal pelvis laceration and/or complete ureteropelvic disruption |
Vascular | Vascular injury with active bleeding breaching the liver parenchyma into the peritoneum | Any injury in the presence of a splenic vascular injury or active bleeding confined within splenic capsule | Segmental renal vein or artery injury Active bleeding beyond Gerota fascia into the retroperitoneum or peritoneum Segmental or complete kidney infarction(s) due to vessel thrombosis without active bleeding |
||
V | 5 | Laceration | Parenchymal disruption involving >75% of hepatic lobe | Shattered spleen | Shattered kidney with loss of identifiable parenchymal renal anatomy |
Vascular | Juxtavenous hepatic injuries; i.e., retrohepatic vena cava/central major hepatic veins | Any injury in the presence of splenic vascular injury with active bleeding extending beyond the spleen into the peritoneum |
Main renal artery or vein laceration or avulsion of hilum Devascularized kidney with active bleeding |
Additional points: Advance one grade for multiple injuries up to Grade III. Vascular injury (i.e., pseudoaneurysm or AV fistula) appears as a focal collection of vascular contrast that decreases in attenuation on delayed images. Active bleeding: focal or diffuse collection of vascular contrast that increases in size or attenuation in a delayed phase. Details from [40,41].
