Pediatric Splenic Trauma

Pediatric spleen injuries are most often caused by blunt abdominal trauma. Early detection using ultrasound (FAST) and CT scan is critical for accurate diagnosis. Management is individualized, with most cases treated non-operatively if the patient is stable, while surgery is reserved for ongoing bleeding or instability. The goal is to ensure the best outcomes while preserving splenic function on all pediatric patients.
