Academic research on pediatric nonneurogenic voiding dysfunction has long been hampered by the lack of a standardized reporting system for symptoms. We evaluated performance newly devised, objective instrument to quantify or grade severity abnormal behaviors children.There were 10 parameters that assigned scores 0 3 according prevalence, and possible total ranged from 30. The Dysfunctional Voiding Symptom Score was completed 2 groups patients. Group 1 consisted patients years old presenting...

Evaluation in children after febrile urinary tract infection involves voiding cystourethrogram, which emphasizes reflux rather than renal risk. We believe that early dimercapto-succinic acid scan predicts clinically significant and should undergo cystourethrogram. The criticism of this approach is some preventable damage would be missed. This study validates the use initial presents 5-year outcomes.We prospectively studied with using scan, cystourethrogram renal/bladder ultrasound. Children...

In this case report, we present two brothers with LARS2 ‐related who have undervirilization. addition to bilateral profound loss, had undescended testes required surgical intervention. addition, younger affected brother hypospadias chordee.

Objectives To evaluate the use of a large‐segment (> 24 cm 2 ) bladder substitution with porcine acellular matrix allograft (BAMA) in large animal model. Materials and methods Bladders were harvested from pigs at time necropsy subjected to detergent enzymatic extractions render them acellular. The BAMA produced had surgical handling suture‐retaining properties normal tissue. Six segments implanted under general anaesthesia, through low midline abdominal incision after partial cystectomy....

We compared surgical outcomes of stented and unstented Mathieu repairs in boys with primary distal hypospadias, evaluated the efficacy safety caudal analgesia relative to other forms (penile block epidural analgesia).We retrospectively reviewed records 336 consecutive who underwent modified repair for hypospadias. A urethral stent was placed 114 patients nonstented performed 222. Adjunct given 136 cases, a penile 158 continuous 42.None cases had urinary retention. Analysis revealed no...
Urodynamic findings often guide treatment for neuropathic bladder and are reported as objective data points in multi-institutional trials. However, urodynamic interpretation can be variable. In a pilot study pediatric urologists interpreting videourodynamics exhibited only moderate agreement despite similar training practice patterns. We hypothesized the variability would replicated study.We developed an anonymous electronic survey that contained 20 scenarios, each with brief patient...
