Abstract
Clinical presentation and complaints of the vulvo-vaginal area are quite prevalent in the pediatric population and the primary care providers the first individuals called upon to evaluate the patients. One of the most difficult tasks for an individual that rarely performs the genitourinary examination is performing one on a pediatric patient. This chapter has been written to aid the primary care provider in successful examination, documentation and diagnosis.
