Abstract
Methicillin resistant S. aureus has become the predominant organism causing pediatric superficial genitourinary abscesses at our institution, accounting for three-quarters of all surgically managed infections in the last 2 years. Methicillin resistant S. aureus was more common at the groin and genitalia. One debridement was generally curative, and patient morbidity was low with aggressive treatment.
