title: Evaluation and management of voiding disorders in children.
abstract: The author examines the non-neuropathic voiding disturbances of childhood in an attempt to develop a practical approach to their evaluation and management. Analysis of each child's presenting symptoms permits a classification into voiding pattern disturbances that are benign and those that are potentially harmful. Such an approach helps to define the indication for and scope of urologic investigation and aids in treatment selection.
