Core Tip |
Ureteroneocystostomy (UNC) is the gold standard for pediatric vesicoureteral reflux treatment but has high postoperative emergency department (ED) visit rates. Analyzing 2020 data from 1495 patients, we identified key risk factors for ED visits within 30 days post-UNC, including postoperative urinary tract infections, surgical site infections, unplanned procedures, urinary catheter placements, and prematurity. These findings underscore the necessity for stringent discharge protocols to reduce postoperative ED visits, emphasizing the management of infections and other modifiable risk factors to enhance patient outcomes and minimize complications. |
