Kidney diseases in children

Genetic diseases and congenital malformations and frequent urine infections of the causes of kidney disease in children.

Children fall ill kidney different as infected as adults, even though their causes in children are different than they are in adults.

Of the most important reasons that lead to kidney disease in children:
1. Genetic disease caused by a lack of certain enzymes that produce salt deposits in the kidneys, and frequent incidence of these diseases in the Gulf because of mating relatives, resulting in the presence of more than one child is infected in the same family.
2. Congenital malformations that affect the kidneys and urinary tract, such as obstructive or التكيس resulting in pressure on the kidney tissue and the loss of their work gradually.
3. Recurrent urinary infections and lack of treatment and diagnosed by pediatricians correctly, studies have shown that 15-20% of the causes of kidney failure have been caused by negligence Ola c urine infections in children less than 5 years.
4. Kidney injury various immune diseases disease systemic lupus erythematosus and nephrotic syndrome disease.
5. Kidney stones.

Thanks to scientific development in various fields has become possible to diagnose some of these cases at the stage of the fetus in the womb of his mother, and so by imaging device sound waves and detect any expansion or deformation in the size of the kidneys, can also take a sample m amniotic fluid during pregnancy and diagnosis of some genetic diseases that may have occurred in the former child with a pregnant woman, and are displayed pregnant woman and her husband on a team of consultants Obstetrics and Gynecology and Kidney children and genetic disease to give them a clear picture of the status of the embryo and what will be done at birth.

Thanks to spread awareness among pediatricians it possible to detect diseases of urinary tract infections at an early stage and treated properly and radiological examinations necessary to determine the nature of the distortions that may exist in the kidney and treated the right way to prevent the recurrence of kidney fibrosis in the long term.

As for the children who suffer from renal failure in the early stages, registered doctor kidneys may help children to complete their development to nutrition (diet) sound and give them growth hormone and injection Alatheropuecan to prevent anemia, which may result in kidney disease.

If arrived baby stages of kidney failure final it can use two methods of dialysis, either hemodialysis is the most common in adults, it does not suit children because it leads to problems in the development of catheter because of the small size of Ordthm, and also lead to delay school due to bring the child to the hospital for washing 3 days a week for 4 hours almost every time, The way other favorite Laundry is peritoneal dialysis home, and is by putting a small tube into the abdominal cavity, and is connected to the child machine washing no larger than the size of the video device and is washing for 10 hours at night while you sleep and then separates the device and the child can exercise his normal life and go to school in the morning.

And is considered stage dialysis temporary phase until preparation of the child for agriculture, and this is the best solution for children where lead compensation work kidney agriculture at an early stage (when the child reaches the weight of 10 kg and over) to the child's development of mental and physical almost a natural qualifies to be active people in the community, and today's modern discoveries and there have been enormous advances in immunosuppressive drugs have become a success rate of kidney transplants up to 96% in some centers this is a very high percentage compared to other transplant operations.
