Sagital reformation was done and no axial plane fracture was seen. We also
performed delayed cuts and no leak was identified.

  This sounds like obstructive uropathy, proably secondary to clots However
no renal fracture was noted. I find sagital reformations very helpful in
this situation to see fractures in the axial plane. Since there s delayed
excretion of the contrast agent, i would certainly perform delayed images to
further evaluate and exclude urinary leak.
  I find no indication for angiography or exploration
