Pediatric Urologic Trauma

Pediatric urologic trauma refers to injuries affecting the urinary system in children, which includes the kidneys, bladder, and urethra. These injuries are often due to accidents, such as falls, sports injuries, or vehicle collisions. Symptoms may include pain, difficulty urinating, or blood in the urine. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies like ultrasound or CT scans, while treatment can range from observation to surgery, depending on the severity. Prompt medical attention is crucial to prevent complications and ensure proper recovery in young patients.
