ABSTRACT
Isolated injuries of the genitourinary tract are rare, with the kidney being the most frequently affected organ, especially in situations of polytrauma. Overall, the genitourinary tract is involved in approximately 3â% of all children suffering polytrauma accidents. The literature and international guidelines provide clear therapeutic concepts with a consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of renal trauma, both for the treatment of adults and for children and adolescents. However, the most common injuries to the external genitalia in children and adolescents are caused by blunt trauma, abrasion, bruising, and piling. For these forms of injuries there are no general recommendations in literature and guidelines regarding diagnostic or therapeutic procedures, which may be due to the wide variety of origins of the injuries. Consequently, as shown in our sequence of case reports, each type of injury to the external genitourinary system requires an individual evaluation and therapeutic approach.
