Imaging of genitourinary trauma.
The kidney, bladder and male urethra are the organs typically injured by blunt and penetrating trauma to the urinary tract, whereas the ureter is only rarely injured. The staging of genitourinary tract trauma has recently gained tremendous significance due to improvements in ultrasound, CT and MRI, including contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography, and has become a helpful tool for decision making with regard to conservative and surgical management. Furthermore, interventional radiology may be helpful to control hemorrhage from vessels in the pelvic region that may not be easily accessed by open surgery. Therefore, this pictorial essay gives examples of the radiological presentation of genitourinary trauma and describes technical details of the diagnostic imaging modalities used.
