Pediatric Reconstructive Urology

Pediatric and reconstructive urology is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of urological conditions in children, as well as the reconstruction of the urinary tract in both children and adults. It addresses a wide range of congenital and acquired urological disorders that affect the kidneys, bladder, ureters, urethra, and genitalia.

Pediatric urology involves the care of infants, children, and adolescents with urological conditions. These conditions can include congenital anomalies, such as hypospadias (abnormal positioning of the urethral opening in males), undescended testes, vesicoureteral reflux (abnormal backflow of urine from the bladder to the kidneys), urinary tract obstruction, and urinary incontinence. Pediatric urologists are specially trained to diagnose and treat these conditions using age-appropriate techniques and procedures to ensure optimal outcomes for young patients.
