Paediatric

Paediatric urology is a subspecialty that deals with disorders of the genitourinary system in children. Pediatric urologists care for both boys and girls from birth through adolescence, managing conditions that may affect urination, reproductive development, and kidney function.

The most common problems in pediatric urology include structural abnormalities, developmental defects, and disorders related to urination or genital anatomy. These issues can range from mild concerns to complex conditions that require surgery and long-term follow-up.
