Paediatrics Nephrology

The kidneys play a crucial role in maintaining the body’s overall health by filtering waste from the blood, regulating electrolyte levels, and producing hormones that control blood pressure. Paediatric nephrology is a sub-speciality that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of kidney-related conditions in infants, children, and adolescents.

The nephrological conditions of children vary from those of adults due to changing physiology of growing kids. For comprehensive treatments, consulting a specialist with in-depth knowledge of paediatrics and nephrology is important.

At Medcy, a paediatric nephrologist works closely with other paediatric specialists to treat children suffering from congenital kidney disorders, kidney stones, kidney failure, high blood pressure, and more.

The paediatric nephrology department is proficient in handling a wide range of kidney-related conditions, including but not limited to:

Acute and Chronic Kidney Diseases: Acute kidney disease happens suddenly, mostly due to bacterial infections or injury. While chronic diseases get worse over time, leading to deteriorating kidney function, sometimes resulting in kidney failure.

Congenital Disorders: These are development defects that result in kidney abnormalities or structural defects that affect kidney function.

Nephrotic Syndrome: These are conditions that affect the filtering units of the kidneys, leading to protein leakage in the urine and other associated complications.

Urinary Tract Infections: When bacteria enter the urinary tract, it can lead to infections in children. UTIs are fairly common in children and require medical assistance to treat them.

Cancer: Wilms tumour is the most common type of kidney cancer that affects children, but it is still rare. To treat various kidney cancers, paediatric nephrologists collaborate with paediatric oncologists to prepare a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses the condition.
