The groin is a complex anatomic region that has traditionally been ignored by radiologists because most lesions can be diagnosed from clinical data and physical examination. Nevertheless, ultrasound examinations of the groin are increasingly being requested to confirm injury or to resolve diagnostic uncertainty. On the other hand, some conditions involving the groin are found only in pediatric patients. This article describes the key imaging findings in pediatric groin injuries, placing special emphasis on the ultrasound appearance.
Knowledge about conditions that can affect the groin in pediatric patients and the key imaging findings associated with them helps improve the diagnostic performance of ultrasound.
腹股沟是一个复杂的解剖区域，传统上被放射科医生忽视，因为大多数病变可以通过临床数据和体格检查来诊断。然而，越来越多的人要求对腹股沟进行超声检查，以确认损伤或解决诊断不确定性。另一方面，一些涉及腹股沟的疾病仅见于儿科患者。本文描述了儿科腹股沟损伤的关键影像学表现，特别强调了超声表现。
了解可能影响儿科患者腹股沟的疾病以及与之相关的关键影像学表现有助于提高超声的诊断性能。
