title: Evaluation and management of pediatric urinary tract infections.
abstract: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are relatively common in children. We describe the evaluation and management of children with UTIs, as well as the risks and consequences related to the UTI. This article describes a rational approach to the evaluation and management of childhood UTIs with the relation to the natural history and risk factors.
