Patterns of CAKUT in Children at Sohag University Hospital
This is an observational study conducted at Sohag University Hospital to assess the clinical presentation, associated anomalies, and short-term outcomes of children diagnosed with Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract (CAKUT).
The investigators will include children from newborns to 18 years old who are diagnosed with CAKUT by ultrasound or other imaging methods. The study aims to describe how common different types of CAKUT are, what other health problems are associated with them, and what happens to these children during follow-up.
No experimental drugs or interventions will be given. The investigators will only collect data from patient medical records and routine follow-up visits.
The results of this study will help doctors in Egypt better understand CAKUT and improve early diagnosis and management for children

About this study
This is a single-center, observational cohort study conducted at the Pediatric Nephrology Department, Sohag University Hospital, Egypt.
Study Population: Children from birth to 18 years diagnosed with Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract (CAKUT) by prenatal or postnatal ultrasound or other imaging modalities.
Data Collection: Demographic data, clinical presentation, laboratory results, imaging findings, and treatment modalities will be collected from medical records. Patients will be followed during routine clinic visits for a minimum of 6 months.
Objectives:
- To determine the frequency and types of CAKUT in our center.
- To describe associated extra-renal anomalies.
- To assess short-term renal outcomes and complications.
This study does not involve any experimental interventions. All investigations and management will be according to standard hospital protocols.
Who can participate
Healthy volunteers accepted: No
