Informations about the disease
Congenital lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) generally manifests as urinary bladder outflow obstruction, which may represent an anatomic blockage or a functional obstruction. Severe forms of LUTO are usually diagnosed prenatally on the basis of an overextended bladder that fails to empty when the upper urinary tract is dilated. Mild forms manifest postnatally, often with recurrent urinary tract infections. More severe forms cause oligohydramnios and are associated with dysplastic renal malformations that may occur secondarily to LUTO. LUTO is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease in children. The DNA diagnostic yield is round about 50%. Therefore, an inconspicuous molecular genetic result does not exclude the clinical diagnosis.
