Aim The impact of the original International Children's Continence Society (ICCS) terminology document on lower urinary tract (LUT) function resulted in global establishment uniformity and clarity characterization LUT dysfunction children across multiple healthcare disciplines. present serves as a stand-alone update reflecting refinement current advancement knowledge pediatric function. Methods A variety worldwide experts from disciplines within ICCS leadership who care for with were...
We updated the terminology in field of pediatric lower urinary tract function.Discussions were held board International Children's Continence Society and an extensive reviewing process was done involving all members as well other experts field.New definitions a standardized are provided, taking into account changes adult sphere new research results.
Despite the high prevalence of enuresis, professional training doctors in evaluation and management this condition is often minimal and/or inconsistent. Therefore, patient care neither optimal nor efficient, which can have a profound impact on affected children their families. Once comprehensive history taking has eliminated daytime symptoms or comorbidities, monosymptomatic enuresis be managed efficaciously majority patients. Non-monosymptomatic more complex condition; these patients may...
Background Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) are most prevalent cause disease in first three decades life. Previous gene panel studies showed monogenic causation up to 12% patients with CAKUT. Methods We applied whole-exome sequencing analyze genotypes individuals from 232 families CAKUT, evaluating for mutations single genes known human CAKUT mice. In consanguineous or multiplex families, we additionally performed a search novel causes Results 29 (13%), detected...
We examined 36 infants with myelodysplasia, using excretory urography, voiding cystourethrography, and urodynamic assessment in the newborn period periodically thereafter to determine those at risk for decompensation of urinary tract. Urodynamic evaluation showed 18 dyssynergia detrusor external sphincter, nine synergic activity no sphincter. Thirteen (72%) group had or later were found have hydroureteronephrosis, while this was case only two (22%) synergy one (11%) absent activity. The...

We evaluated urodynamically 41 patients with posterior urethral valves because of signs or symptoms incontinence (35), frequency (3), hydronephrosis (2) and infection (1). Findings included normal urodynamic evaluations in 3 patients, 2 had high voiding pressures secondary to outlet resistance 1 on the basis external sphincter damage. In remainder patterns bladder dysfunction were identified. Myogenic failure overflow occurred 14 patients. this group clean intermittent catheterization...
Urinary tract management in children with myelodysplasia is controversial. Some advocate observation alone, while others believe that the prophylactic institution of intermittent catheterization and anticholinergic therapy may help to prevent deterioration.A nonrandomized prospective study was instituted compare urological outcomes a cohort who were at risk for deterioration on basis bladder-sphincter dyssynergia and/or high filling or voiding pressures. Those observed until occurred, placed...

Surgical indications for correcting adolescent varicocele include high grade and testicular hypotrophy. To our knowledge these findings have not been correlated with semen parameters to date. We examined the relationship between unilateral left or volume differential in adolescents.Semen analyses were done 57 Tanner stage V males at ages 14 20 years (mean+/-SD 18 +/- 1.6). Varicocele was determined by attending urologist. Testicular volumes scrotal ultrasound performed an sonologist. Data...
We determined the resolution rate of vesicoureteral reflux and factors that influence it to formulate nomograms predict probability annual for individual cases reflux.We studied 2,462 children with primary diagnosed between 1998 2006. Cox proportional hazards regression was used model time as a function statistically significant demographic clinical variables. The resulting construct predicting cumulative resolution.Multivariate analysis showed all unilateral resolved earlier than female...
Abstract Purpose The objective of this ICCS standardization document is to report the initial diagnostic evaluation and subsequent work‐up children with neuropathic bladder dysfunction. Materials Methods Due a paucity level I or II, “levels evidence” publications, these recommendations are actually compilation best practices because they seem be effective reliable, although not any control. Results Throughout document, emphasis on promoting early, comprehensive lower urinary tract function...
High pressure dyssynergic voiding may result in irreversible damage to the urinary tract. Prophylactic therapy form of clean intermittent catheterization and anticholinergic medication significantly decrease incidence upper tract deterioration. Whether prophylactic high risk bladder also lead improved long-term dynamics prompted us study effect early versus late treatment hypertonicity detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia on ultimate need for augmentation.We retrospectively reviewed urological...
An accurate estimation of normal bladder capacity can be helpful in evaluating the patient with genitourinary disease and interpreting urodynamic data. Prior studies have provided initial estimates. We propose 2 new equations that are practical, easy to use more than those previously published.We retrospectively reviewed records 5,000 children undergoing radionuclide cystography at our institution. Radionuclide was conducted by instilling (99m)technetium pertechnetate via gravity drip awake...

We assessed clinical and ultrasound predictors of the spontaneous resolution prenatally diagnosed, primary nonrefluxing megaureter.Primary megaureter was diagnosed in 54 neonates from 1993 to 1998, including 15 whom it bilateral (69 megaureters).
