Abstract

This paper presents a short review of systems for the urological and nephrological monitoring of a child with neurogenic bladder. Different diagnostic procedures to be performed in these children are compared. On the basis of this review and the authors’ own experience, a diagnostic algorithm for a child with neurogenic bladder dysfunction is proposed.

Streszczenie

W pracy przedstawiono zestawienie informacji z piśmiennictwa na temat postępowania urologicznego i nefrologicznego u dzieci z pęcherzem neurogennym. Zwrócono szczególną uwagę na dane dotyczące częstości wykonywania poszczególnych badań kontrolnych. Przedstawiono także własny algorytm postępowania diagnostycznego w tej grupie pacjentów.
