Abstract
UTI in children can be the first sign of congenital renal malformations, especially reflux. Therefore, it is important to increase the awareness of the pediatrician in order to assist in the diagnosis and treatment, and in the evaluation of children with UTI. Sakran & al presented 151 children hospitalized in the Haemek Medical Center with UTI. Clinical characteristics of the children are described, distribution of uropathogens, their susceptibility to antimicrobials and the empiric antimicrobial therapy is assessed. In addition, the paper discussed the different image study procedures indicated in the evaluation of these children.
