Because of the enormous progress of science and technology and increasing possibilities in diagnostics and therapeutics guidelines are also necessary in pediatric urology. Guidelines must have the non-committal character of recommendations in order not to reduce the freedom of medical action in diagnosis and therapy to the detriment of patient interests. The special premises and conditions of guidelines must be defined. Due to the large variety of diseases and disturbances in pediatric urology, it is important to limit the number of guidelines.
