Peeing will cause children to have urinary tract infections, kidney failure or kidney-related diseases. Diagnosing the cause of diarrhea in children plays an important role in the treatment of the disease.
1. Causes of leaky urine in young children
Diarrhea in young children is urinary incontinence with varying degrees of severity. There are many causes of this condition, but mainly due to the following 3 main causes:Bedwetting Bedwetting is a condition in which a child urinates unconsciously, usually during sleep. When enough urine passes from the kidneys to the bladder, a reflex of bladder contraction occurs. When there is muscle contraction, the pressure in the bladder will increase, urine will go out through the urethra thanks to the sphincter outside the urethra or in the bladder neck.
According to studies, bladder muscle capacity in children with bedwetting is often greatly reduced. Even compared with normal children, of the same age, the capacity of bedwetting children can only hold about 50% of the urine volume.
In rare cases, children with bedwetting are also accompanied by pathological symptoms such as: Perineal irritation or behavioral disorders ...
Ectopic ureter Normally, the ureter will empty into back of the bladder. The two openings of the ureters together with the bladder neck form a triangle. When the ureter is outside the specified area, it is called an ectopic ureter.
In girls, an ectopic ureter usually occurs around the opening of the urethral opening or elsewhere in the genitals. If not detected in time, the child will appear infectious complications...
In boys, the ureter is ectopic on the kidney - single ureter, genital tract. If left untreated for a long time, the child will develop orchitis, urinary tract infection, seriously affecting kidney function....
Neurogenic bladder syndrome The bladder is responsible for storing and excreting urine. , they are controlled by the sympathetic, parasympathetic, and independent nervous systems. If there is a problem with this control system, the bladder becomes damaged and does not work properly. Therefore, it is the cause of leaky urine in children.
Other causes Some other causes can lead to leaky urine in children such as: cystitis, urinary tract infection, foreskin narrowing ...

2. Diagnose the cause of leakage in children by any medical technique?
To diagnose the cause of diarrhea in children, in addition to based on clinical manifestations and patient history information, the doctor will assign the patient to perform medical techniques such as:UIV X-ray UIV is also known as an intravenous X-ray of the urinary system. This method is indicated when the bladder and urethra are fully distended and the patient is urinating. This method is used to investigate the function and morphology of the urinary system.
When performing the UIV technique, the doctor will place a probe in the urethra to put into the bladder. Contrast is then injected intravenously to the kidneys, where the kidneys filter and excrete it, allowing the drug to be absorbed into the entire urinary system over time. Additional X-ray images will be taken as urine flows out of the bladder.
Retrograde cystography The retrograde cystography technique helps to assess bladder status and detect signs of vesicoureteral reflux.
Ultrasound Ultrasound is a method of using high-frequency ultrasound waves to build and reconstruct images of the internal structures of the body. In particular, it helps to detect kidney disease - double ureter in girls and kidney atrophy or ectopic in boys.
Ultrasound technology also helps detect cases of dilated renal calyces or ureters, thereby indirectly assessing kidney function through the thickness of the renal parenchyma.
Cystoscopy Cystoscopy is a technique indicated to diagnose the cause of leakage in children. This method can detect ectopic ureteral orifice in the urethra or bladder neck.
Nephrogram Nephrogram is a technique to help determine the function of the kidney. In addition, this test is also effective when the kidneys have lost function.
