Abstract

Botulinum Toxin Type A (BTTA) was first used in medicine in the late 1960s.During its relatively short history, botulinum toxin has found application in various fields of medicine such as urology, neurology, ophthalmology, gastroenterology, pediatrics, endocrinology, otorhinolaryngology, proctology, and others. However, the use of this toxin in pediatric urology began only in 2003. BTTA is mainly used to treat neurogenic urinary disorders (urinary incontinence), most of which are caused by myelodysplasia. It is difficult to overestimate the importance of chemodenervation with botulinum toxin in children with gallbladder-dependent hydroureteronephrosis, since if conservative treatment is unsuccessful, such children undergo traumatic augmentation surgeries with adverse long-term consequences, and chemodenervation is the last line of therapy in these patients. It should also be noted that although the data on detrusor denervation efficacy by botulinum toxin are very promising, there are no clear indications for intervention. This study was conducted with the aim of reviewing and interpreting the currently existing information on the use of BTTA in pediatric urology.

Keywords
