A patient is brought to the emergency room following blunt abdominal injury. His vital signs are stable. He is passing grossly bloody urine and the IV pyelogram reveals minimal extravasation on the left side and nonvisualization of the right kidney. The next step in the management of this patient should be <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
1) continued observation
2) retrograde pyelography
3) arteriography
4) bilateral renal exploration through the abdomen
5) right kidney exploration through a flank incision

Blunt trauma means the urethra is severed
This is confirmed by the IV pyelogram
They give away the result by repeating
1. blunt abdominal trauma
2. the result of the IV pyelogram
next is to confirm the urthra is severed by ordering a retrograde pyelogram to inject dye from the penile urthral opening
