Purpose: Caudal regression syndrome (CRS) is a rare congenital abnormality including orthopedic deformities, urological, anorectal, and cardiac malformations. The clinical spectrum of CRS varies in severity, therefore multiple surgeries and complex medical care may be required with the efforts and support of a multidisciplinary team to ensure the most accurate treatment and the best outcome. The aim of our retrospective study was to evaluate the role of a multidisciplinary treatment and the long-term outcome in patients with severe CRS.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate urinary levels of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), epidermal growth factor (EGF), β-2-microglobulin (β2M), and FAS-ligand (FAS-L) in children with congenital anomalies of kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) disease at risk of developing glomerular hyperfiltration syndrome. For this reason, we selected patients with multicystic kidney, renal agenesia and renal hypodysplasia, or underwent single nephrectomy.
Materials And Methods: This prospective, multicentric study was conducted in collaboration between the Pediatric Surgery Unit in Foggia and the Pediatric Nephrology Unit in Bari, Italy.
