PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common pediatric infections worldwide. Recently introduced 16S rRNA sequencing allows detailed identification of bacteria involved in UTI on a species-based level. The urogenital microbiome in children is scarcely investigated, with underlying conditions differing from adults. Improvement in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches can help to minimize unnecessary antibiotic treatments, thereby protecting the physiological microbiome. RECENT FINDINGS: Healthy bladders of children display a distinct microbiome than those of adults. UTI is characterized by changes in bacterial composition, with a high prevalence of Enterobacterales. There is a correlation between bacterial species and the pH of the urine, so a characteristic age-related pathogen pattern can be found due to the acidic urine in infants and more alkaline urine in older children. Recently, new methods were proposed to overcome the suboptimal diagnostic performance of urine cultures and urine dipstick test. This allows precise treatment decisions and helps to prevent chronification of UTI, related voiding dysfunctions and renal scaring, systemic abiosis, and the development of antibiotic resistance. SUMMARY: Uropathogens involved in UTIs in children should be identified with precision to allow targeted therapeutic decisions. This can also help preventing the destruction of the microbiome homeostasis, which could result in a life-long dysbiosis. New treatment approaches and recolonization with probiotics are necessary due to increasing intrinsic antibiotic resistance of bacteria.
