摘要：
Urinary tract infection is a common source of fever in pediatric patients, especially infants who are not yet toilet-trained. Clinical findings are frequently nonspecific, making recognition and diagnosis challenging. This article presents an overview of the epidemiology and clinical features of pediatric urinary tract infection, the available diagnostic tests for screening and definitive diagnosis, and an approach to management including antibiotic treatment and follow-up.
