SIU PEDIATRIC AND TRANSITIONAL UROLOGY SUBCOMMITTEE
Posterior Urethral Valves Webinar

Posterior urethral valves are severe conditions that can lead to progressive damage to kidney function and long-term risk of end-stage disease. Its the most common congenital urinary outflow obstruction with wide geographic, ethnic, and therapeutic variations globally that need to be addressed. 

Many uncertainties around the comprehension of embryology, risk factors,  management and long term evolution remain. Fetal Medicine and transitional care are the two fields that benefit less from research development. 

  • What are the challenges of this disease throughout the world in daily urology practice? 
  • Is there any breakthrough development in research? 
  • What are the gaps that need to be addressed in management and transitional care? 

Our subcommittee panel has the honor of presenting and discussing this epic question.
