Introduction: E-scooters recently gained mass expansion, leading to increased use-related injuries, most commonly head trauma, facial, and extremity fractures, while abdominal trauma with kidney involvement is less frequent. Here we present two cases of e-scooter-related high-grade blunt kidney trauma.
Case Reports: The first case was a 24-year-old male presenting with right abdominal pain after e-scooter autonomous right fall.

We present the case of a 25-year-old male who came to the emergency room for pain and abdominal distension following trauma to the mesogastrium.

The patient presented anemization and increased pain, requiring selective embolization by means of arteriography of a branch of the right renal artery and placement of a double J stent due to urinary extravasation in the lower left kidney pole.
