  • Title: New developments in the diagnosis and management of pediatric UTIs.
    Author: Bauer R, Kogan BA.
    Journal: Urol Clin North Am; 2008 Feb; 35(1):47-58; vi. PubMed ID: 18061023.
    Abstract:
    Urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children are common and a major source of morbidity. The incidence of UTIs in childhood is not precisely known because it is not a reportable disease, and in many cases, especially in infants, UTIs are underdiagnosed. Furthermore, the definitions and criteria for diagnosis vary considerably. This article reviews the diagnosis and work-up of UTIs in children, and presents current data reviewing the roles of radiologic imaging, surgical correction, and antibiotic prophylaxis in the setting of pediatric UTIs.
