25.6 Conclusion

Submucosal pericervical injection of implantable materials for urinary incontinence in childhood and adolescence is resulted as an effective and minimally invasive method (day-case procedure), with very favorable cost/result ratio and high patient preference, if we can guarantee (a) the rigorous patient’s selection; and (b) the precise endoscopic injection technique.

The role of pharmacological urotherapy, uro-rehabilitation, endoscopic treatment, and open surgery needs to be utilized in an individualized and integrated manner, as the functional and anatomical situations could be very different in the neurogenic pediatric population. Anyway, we must consider that urinary continence achievement is a basic need in the pediatric and adolescent population, one that we should obtain at all costs.
