N2  - Congenital urogenital abnormalities cover a wide range of conditions, both anatomically and functionally, which may cause UTI, renal scarring and end stage renal disease. Obstructive uropathy seems to be one of the more important disorders to diagnose and follow to prevent UTI and deterioration of kidney function. However, evidence of exactly which anomalies pose the greatest risk and stand to benefit from either prophylactic precautions or surgery is still sparse. The available data for UTI and upper urinary tract obstruction suggest that continuous antibiotic prophylaxis (CAP) and possibly male circumcision reduce the incidence of pyelonephritis in infants with hydroureteronephrosis.
