Paediatric Urology

An Overview :

Paediatric urology is a specialized area of urology that deals with urinary and genital problems in newborns, children, and adolescents. Children are not just small adults — their urinary system is still developing and needs gentle, specialized care. 

At Niranjan Hospital, Perambalur, we provide comprehensive urological care for children, ranging from simple conditions like bedwetting to more complex issues such as undescended testis, hypospadias, and congenital kidney or bladder abnormalities. 

Common Paediatric Urology Conditions We Treat:

  1. Phimosis 

A common condition where the fore skin is not retractable causing recurrent urinary infections, itching in the tip of penis and difficulty passing urine. 

  1. Undescended Testis (Cryptorchidism) 

A condition where one or both testicles fail to move into the scrotum. Surgery (orchidopexy) is usually done between 6 months to 1 year of age. 

  1. Hypospadias 

A birth defect where the urinary opening is not at the tip of the penis. It may require surgical correction to ensure proper urination and appearance. 

  1. Posterior Urethral Valves (PUV) 

A condition in baby boys where a valve like tissue blocks the urethra causing urine flow obstruction. It needs early treatment to prevent kidney damage. 

  1. Hydronephrosis 

Swelling of the kidney due to blockage or reflux. Needs evaluation and sometimes surgical correction. 

  1. Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) in Children 

Repeated UTIs in children need investigation to rule out underlying issues like reflux or obstruction. 

  1. Bedwetting (Nocturnal Enuresis) 

Common in younger children but may require treatment if it continues beyond a certain age. 

  1. Vesicoureteral Reflux (VUR) 

A condition where urine flows backward from the bladder to the kidneys, leading to infections and kidney damage.
