ABSTRACT

Point-of-care ultrasound can be an effective tool to facilitate the evaluation of abdominal and pelvic pain in children. We present a series of 3 pediatric patients with nonspecific abdominal and pelvic symptoms in whom point-of-care ultrasound expedited diagnosis, guided decision-making, prompted subspecialist consultation, and led to definitive management of vaginal obstruction.
