conclusions vur might be more frequent in children with physiological urinary incontinence than the normal population, and might be as common as nmne with intermittent daytime incontinence. results urinary tract infection was found in 23 (34.8%) children, 17 (33.3%) and 6 (40%) patients with nmne and physiological urinary incontinence, respectively. out of 48 patients who underwent vcug, vesico...

INTRODUCTION Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) may be significantly associated with congenital malformations. However, there is little evidence on the relationship between renal and urinary tract anomalies and CH. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare the renal and upper urinary tract anomalies in children with and without primary CH (PCH). PATIENTS AND METHODS This case-control stud...

Esophageal atresia is often associated with other anomalies. Hereditary and environmental factors may influence the incidence of associated anomalies, particularly of the urogenital system. We had 63 neonates with esophageal atresia admitted to 2 centers in Hamadan, Iran, from 2002 to 2008. They were 38 girls (60.3%) and 25 boy (39.7%). Tracheoesophageal fistula was present in 54 neonates (85.7...

Urinary tract infections are often associated with urinary anomalies. An appropriate pharmacologic treatment may prevent, or may at least limit, any kidney damage due to pyelonephritis. The antibiotic prophylaxis plays a role as significant as early surgical therapy, taking into consideration also the present limitative trend for a softer therapeutic regimen. In the past few years a greater bac...

The aim of the study was to detect newborns at risk for developing renal impairment, and to point out the importance of significant asimptomatic bacteriuria in perinatal period and early infancy. Severe urinary tract anomalies are very often accompanied only by asimptomatic bacteriuria in perinatal period. Three urinalysis ware done after delivery. 212 newborns with significant asimptomatic bac...

We describe a case of robot-assisted laparoscopic bilateral upper urinary tract surgery in a 4-month-old infant for complex bilateral upper urinary tract duplication anomalies.

Persistent urachal anomalies are rare congenital lesions of the urinary tract. They result from failed obliteration urachus and classified according to persistent segment urachus.
