Pediatric Urology
Specialized Urological Care for Children & Adolescents
Pediatric urology deals with urinary and genital issues in children, from birth through adolescence. These conditions can affect the kidneys, bladder, ureters, urethra, and genitals — and may require expert medical or surgical care.
At Sparsh Pediatric Surgical Clinic, our pediatric urologists use child-specific diagnostic tools and minimally invasive procedures to ensure precise and gentle care.
Why Pediatric Urology Needs Special Attention
Children’s urinary systems are still developing — which means their conditions, treatments, and recovery plans must be tailored with care. We specialize in:
- Diagnosing complex congenital and acquired urological conditions
- Offering child-friendly, minimally invasive surgical options
- Coordinating with pediatric nephrologists and endocrinologists when needed
- Ensuring long-term outcomes like kidney health, continence, and fertility
Common Pediatric Urological Conditions We Treat
Here’s an organized list of common urological conditions we manage — each with a quick explanation:
Testicles that haven’t moved into the scrotum by birth or early infancy. Surgery ensures proper placement and long-term hormonal/fertility health.
Conditions where the foreskin is too tight, inflamed, or infected. Treated with medication or circumcision when necessary.
A common condition where the opening of the urethra is on the underside of the penis. Surgical correction improves appearance and urination.
A blockage where the kidney meets the ureter, causing urine buildup and swelling (hydronephrosis). Surgery helps restore proper flow and preserve kidney function.
Urine flows backward from the bladder into the ureters/kidneys, risking infections. Treatment can include medication or surgery to stop the backflow.
Congenital obstruction in boys where valve-like tissue blocks urine flow from the bladder. Early surgery prevents kidney damage and improves bladder function.
Developmental anomalies where a child has double ureters or abnormally large ureters, causing infections or blockages. Surgery may be required depending on severity.
A ballooning of the end of the ureter inside the bladder that can obstruct urine flow. Surgical correction relieves blockage and protects the kidney.
A rare condition where the urethral opening is on the upper side of the penis or near the clitoris in girls. Reconstructive surgery is the treatment of choice.
Outpouchings or nerve-related bladder issues affecting urine storage or emptying. Managed with medication, surgery, or long-term bladder care.
Injuries to the urethra from trauma or catheterization. These are repaired surgically to restore function and avoid long-term issues.
