Pediatrics and Child Health Pediatric Urology
Pediatric urology is a specialized field of medicine devoted to the diagnosis, management, and treatment of problems related to the urinary tract and the genitalia of infants, children, and adolescents. This includes conditions such as dysfunctional voiding, vesicoureteral reflux, and common birth defects, including hypospadias, undescended testes, cryptorchidism, and bladder exstrophy. Pediatric urologists use a range of treatments, including minimally invasive procedures, medication, and surgical interventions, to help children with urologic health issues. The aim of pediatric urology is to improve children's health and quality of life, addressing conditions that can lead to long-term complications.
