Pediatric urology
Our investigators in the Department of Urology-Research conduct clinical and basic science research on a wide range of conditions affecting the genitourinary tract in children of all ages. These conditions include issues that affect the kidneys, bladder, urethra and genital tract.
Areas of research in pediatric urology include:
- Penile and primary bladder reconstruction to surgically repair classical bladder exstrophy.
- The relationship between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and urinary incontinence and nighttime enuresis.
- Transient urodynamic dysfunction of infancy, along with urinary tract infections (UTIs) and vesicoureteral reflux, both of which can result from voiding dysfunction.
- Personalized chemotherapy combined with surgery regimens in genitourinary malignancy.
