Track: Pediatric Nephrology
Kidney diseases
are often allied with poor lifestyles and old age, but children also suffer
from a host of issues related to their kidneys. The kidney diseases in children
could be congenital (from birth) such as hydronephrosis or an obstruction of
the urinary tract. Children can also contract urinary tract infections, kidney
stones, renal
failure and other diseases and medical issues. Pediatric nephrology comprises
diagnosing, treatment, and management many disorders affecting the kidney and
urinary tract, including kidney failure, inherited kidney diseases, high blood
pressure, kidney stones, abnormalities in the urine such as blood and protein
and urinary tract infections. Pediatric nephrology evaluates and treats
hypertension, hematuria, proteinuria, renal tubular acidosis, nephrolithiasis,
glomerulonephritis and kidney
failure.
