ABSTRACT
Urinary tract infections [UTI] are common in children and should always be confirmed by quantitative urine culture. Children with symptomatic UTI should be started on antibiotics without delay and continued for 10 days. Every child with UTI, especially younger children, should be investigated radiologically to reveal obstructive lesions, vesico-ureteric reflux and other anatomical and functional abnormalities. Local facilities and experience are of major importance when selecting imaging techniques and the timing of the investigations. All children with UTI especially if associated with scars should be followed up, to monitor their growth, renal functions and blood pressure
