Abstract

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the performance of Ultrasonography (US) versus Computed Tomography (CT) scan in detecting intra-abdominal injury among pediatric patients with blunt abdominal trauma. Methods: Pediatric patients aged<18, who were admitted to the emergency department (ED) due to blunt abdominal trauma and underwent both US and CT scan were evaluated retrospectively. Results: A total of 732 pediatric patients were included in this study. Pathology was detected on US of 418 (57. 1%) cases, whereas, intra-abdominal pathology was detected in CT scan of 359 (48. 7%) cases. The sensitivity of US in detecting pathology (fluid and/or organ injury) was 95. 3%, and its specificity was 79. 6%. The sensitivity of US in detecting free fluid was 94. 9%, and its specificity was 80. 5%. In hemodynamically unstable and stable patients, the sensitivities of US in detection of pathology (fluid and/or organ injury) were 97. 6% and 91. 6%, and its specificities were 74. 3% and 80. 9%, respectively. Conclusion: In our study, the sensitivity of US in terms of detecting pathology in Pediatrics with blunt abdominal trauma was high, whereas the specificity of US was low.
