Abstract
Functional disorders of the lower urinary tract (LUT) are common in the pediatric population. LUT dysfunction may represent a delay in maturation or the development of discoordination of the normal physiologic controls for the bladder. The impact of LUT dysfunction is significant and affects the socialization and self-esteem of children. Additionally, LUT dysfunction presents a significant stress to the child's family. Because of the complexity of the physiology and pathophysiology of the LUT, it is important to have a thorough understanding of the varying etiologies for LUT dysfunction and direct a treatment plan that will most optimally address the underlying pathophysiology.
