CT of the pediatric abdomen after blunt trauma has becoem a widely accepted technique for evaluation of hepatic and splenic injury. However, detection of hollow viscus and pancreatic injury remains challenging and controversial. Detection of bowel rupture (extravasated oral contrast, bowel discontinuity), pancreatic injury (laceration, separation of fragments) and bladder rupture may be difficult, particularly with inadequate technique and lack of vigilance. This article reviews findings associated with several injuries which may present diagnostic pitfalls as well as technical factors relating to the administration of enteric contrast and CT cystography.
