Urinary tract infection is a frequent diagnosis in children who are referred to the urologist. Infections vary in scope and severity, warranting thoughtful consideration of appropriate therapy. Infections of the genitourinary system may include bacterial,viral, fungal, or parasitic microorganisms. Adequate therapy requires rapid detection and control of these conditions to prevent pyelonephritic renal scarring and its sequelae.
