[Renal abscess in children].

Introduction: Renal abscesses are relatively rare in children, but they can lead to prolonged hospital stay and life-threatening complications. Scrutiny of the literature over the past two decades indicates the absence of a unified tactic for the treatment of purulent-destructive forms of pyelonephritis in children, while more and more articles are appearing in terms of a low -key approach to the treatment of renal abscess in children.

Materials And Methods: From 2005 to 2019, we treated 59 children with the renal abscess.

[Comparison of functional magnetic resonance urography and dynamic renal scintigraphy in the functional assessment of ureteropelvic junction obstruction in children].

Purpose: In order to determine the role and significance of functional magnetic resonance urography (fMRU) in the diagnosis of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO), a comparative analysis of the results of fMRU and dynamic renal scintigraphy (DRS) was carried out.

Materials And Methods: From January 2017 to December 2019, fMRU and diuretic DRS were performed in 36 patients (mean age 89+/-63 months). Boys - 26 (72.

In December 2019, a new SARS-CoV-2 virus, called COVID-19, was identified in the Wuhan province of China, the spread of which determined the development of a pandemic. The lack of publications with evidence-based clinical studies dictate the necessity to cover various, including rare, pathological effects of the virus on the human body and the subsequent effect on it. Nowadays, there is already evidence that the SARS-CoV-2 virus causes specific damage to the vessels (endothelium), myocardium, and kidneys.
