Best Pediatric Urology/Andrology Hospital in Hyderabad, India

Pediatric Urology is a surgical subspecialty that deals with children’s genitourinary tract and any disorders or congenital defects associated with them. Pediatric urologists focus on newborn patients, children, or adolescents. Issues related to urological conditions or abnormalities of the genitals of children fall under pediatric urology. All surgical services for all genitourinary conditions form part of pediatric urology. The most common conditions that children suffer from under pediatric urology are disorders of urination, reproductive organs, and testes.

Who are Pediatric Urologists?

Pediatric Urologists are specially trained surgeons who deal with urinary and genital issues in children. Children may often get urinary tract infections or may suffer from abnormalities or defects in their kidneys or genitalia. Pediatric urologists are specifically trained to sensitively handle children while treating such issues. It is not easy for children to communicate the problems they are undergoing especially if they are related to their urinary or genital system. 

Sometimes urological or genital conditions can be diagnosed during a prenatal ultrasound like an abnormality in kidney function or the genitals and may require surgery post-birth. If your child suffers from any such issue you may consult your pediatrician to see if you are in need to see a pediatric urologist.

  • Kidney Transplant: It is a procedure wherein a healthy kidney is placed in the patient when their kidneys cannot function and lose about 90% of their ability to function normally.

  • Renal Angioplasty: It is a procedure used to unclog renal arteries. The arteries may get clogged due to several factors or diseases like atherosclerosis.

A pediatric urologist will examine the baby’s weight and overall medical health and set up an in-office circumcision.

Such procedures must be carried out in a sterile medical environment under the supervision of a medical expert.
