NCT ID NCT07729566
First seen Jul 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 29, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This observational study at Sohag University Hospital will look at children from birth to 18 years old who have congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT). Researchers will collect data from medical records and routine follow-ups to describe the types of anomalies, any other birth defects present, and short-term health outcomes. No experimental treatments are given—the goal is simply to better understand these conditions and help improve care.
