The urology specialists at St. Louis Children's Hospital are able to implement some of the most technologically advanced procedures when treating children, due to the hospital's affiliation with the world-renowned Washington University School of Medicine.

Children are treated with noninvasive procedures whenever possible. When invasive measures are required, endoscopic and laparoscopic techniques are used to the extent possible to reduce morbidity and decrease recovery time. Special anesthetics and sedation are also used to relieve the children's anxiety and pain. The majority of interventions are performed on an outpatient basis.

Conditions treated:

  • Tumors of the kidney, bladder and testicles
  • Urinary tract infections
  • Vesicoureteral reflux
  • Urinary incontinence
  • Undescended testes
