Urology - Pediatric Surgery in Dubai

It can be challenging for children to articulate their concerns to doctors, leading to unanswered medical questions. As most children struggle to express their issues or cooperate during medical procedures, it is recommended to perform examinations. At German Medical Center, we understand the unique needs of children and provide a comfortable and supportive environment to ensure that they receive the best possible care. If your child is experiencing urological concerns, we recommend consulting with our specialized urologists, who are skilled in addressing such issues.

Abnormalities during pregnancy and other factors can cause various urological concerns in newborns or later stages of a child’s life. Using specialized equipment designed for children, routine examinations or surgeries can be performed to address problems before they negatively impact the child’s life.

Pediatric urology is a specialized field that focuses on diagnosing, treating, and managing urinary tract disorders and genital conditions in children. From urinary tract infections to congenital disabilities, pediatric urology covers many illnesses and diseases that can impact a child’s health and well-being. Whether your child is experiencing pain or discomfort in the urinary system or is facing a more complex urological condition, it is essential to seek the care of a skilled pediatric urologist who can provide effective treatment and management. This article will explore some of the most common pediatric urological conditions and diseases, their symptoms, causes, and treatment options, as well as the importance of seeking specialized care for your child’s urological health.

An initial evaluation of the child will first decide the complexities of the condition at hand. A detailed review of medical records will present the patient’s history, based on which the next course of action will be taken. To progress further, several tests will be taken to confirm or reach a diagnosis, after which a recommendation regarding treatment will be discussed.

Pediatric surgery related to urology is a subspecialty of pediatric surgery that deals with surgical procedures associated with the urinary system and genitalia of children. These procedures can range from minor surgeries to complex procedures requiring advanced technology and expertise. This includes surgical interventions for congenital anomalies of the urinary tract and reproductive organs and acquired conditions such as tumours, trauma, and infections. Some common conditions that pediatric urology surgery may address include:
  • Hypospadias: A congenital disease where the urethra is not located at the tip of the penis
  • Undescended testes: A condition where one or both testicles have not descended into the scrotum
  • Vesicoureteral reflux: A condition where urine flows back from the bladder into the ureters
  • Urinary tract obstruction: A blockage in the urinary tract that can cause urine to back up into the kidneys
  • Neurogenic bladder: A condition where the nerves that control the bladder are not functioning properly
You should consider seeing a pediatric urologist if your child has any of the following symptoms or conditions:
  1. Bedwetting: If your child is over six and is still wetting the bed at night, it may be a sign of a urinary tract problem.
  2. Painful urination: If your child complains of pain or burning while urinating, it could be a sign of an infection or other urological problem.
  3. Blood in the urine: If your child has blood in their urine, it could be a sign of an infection, kidney stones, or other urological problem.
  4. Difficulty or pain with bowel movements: If your child has difficulty passing stool or experiences pain during bowel movements, it could be a sign of a urological problem.
  5. Hernias: If your child has a bulge in the groin area or scrotum, it could be a sign of a hernia that needs to be evaluated by a urologist.
  6. Undescended testes: If your child's testicles have not descended into the scrotum, it could be a sign of a urological problem that needs to be evaluated by a urologist.
  7. Urinary tract infections: If your child has recurrent urinary tract infections, it may indicate an underlying urological problem.
  8. Hydronephrosis: If your child has been diagnosed with hydronephrosis or swelling in the kidney due to urine backup, they may need to see a pediatric urologist for treatment.
  9. Congenital anomalies: If your child is born with a congenital anomaly of the urinary tract or genitalia, they will need to be evaluated and treated by a pediatric urologist.
The treatment options for pediatric urological conditions depend on the specific situation and severity. Some treatment options may include:
  1. Medication: Some urological conditions can be treated with drugs, such as antibiotics for urinary tract infections or to relax the bladder.
  2. Behavioural modifications: Some urological conditions, such as bedwetting, may be treated with behavioural changes, such as limiting fluids before bedtime or using a bedwetting alarm.
  3. Surgery: In some cases, surgery may be necessary to correct urological conditions, such as undescended testicles, vesicoureteral reflux, or obstructive uropathy.
  4. Catheterization: Some urological conditions may require catheterization, which involves inserting a tube into the bladder to drain urine.
  5. Dialysis: In severe cases of kidney failure, dialysis may be necessary to filter waste products from the blood.
  6. Kidney transplant: If a child's kidneys fail, they may need pediatric kidney surgery.
  7. Supportive care: For some urological conditions, supportive care may be necessary to manage symptoms and prevent complications.
