Study Notes
Pediatric Urology
- Continuous dribbling of urine in a young girl with a normal voiding pattern and a history of never being totally dry suggests Ectopic ureter.
- Voiding cystourethrogram is the preferred investigation for suspected vesicoureteric reflux in children with recurrent urinary tract infections.
- A grade II vesicoureteral reflux is indicated when voiding cystourethrogram shows reflux into upper collecting systems without dilation in infants.
- Antenatal hydronephrosis is indicated by an anterior-posterior renal pelvis diameter of more than 7 mm in the third trimester due to pyeloureteric junction obstruction.
- The most common anomaly associated with recurrent urinary tract infections in children is Vesicoureteric reflux.
- Features like hematuria, headache, and high blood pressure in a 12-year-old girl with a history of recurrent UTIs suggest Reflux uropathy with chronic renal failure.
- For a 9-month-old girl with a urinary tract infection, Ultrasonogram is the first-line imaging investigation.
- E. coli is the most prevalent cause of urinary tract infections in children.
- Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease is linked to chromosomes 4 and 16.
- Hepatic fibrosis is associated with Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease.
- The term Ask-Upmark kidney refers to Renal segmental hypoplasia.
- Neuroblastoma is the most common cause of an abdominal mass in neonates.
Pediatric Nephrology
- Vaccination in a child with steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome allows for all killed vaccines under the National Immunization Schedule (NIS) to be administered.
- In a child with chronic hepatitis B who develops nephrotic syndrome, the renal biopsy most likely shows Membranous nephropathy.
- Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome is characterized by failure to achieve remission after 4 weeks of corticosteroid therapy.
- Focal Segmental Glomerular Sclerosis (FSGS) is often caused by mutations in the NPHS 2 (podocin) gene.
- Congenital nephrotic syndrome is defined but the completion of the definition is missing in the text provided.
