Non-syndromic uro-recto-genital tract malformations refer to a group of congenital anomalies affecting the development of the urinary and/or reproductive systems that are not associated with any known genetic syndromes. These malformations can involve various parts of the urinary and/or reproductive tract, such as the kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra, or genitals, and can present with a range of symptoms and severity levels. Diagnosis of non-syndromic uro-recto-genital tract malformations may involve imaging studies, genetic testing, and other diagnostic tests, and treatment may involve medical management, surgical interventions, or a combination of both. The cause of many non-syndromic uro-recto-genital tract malformations is not well understood, but may involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Dr Giovanni Mosiello is head of the paediatric Neuro-Urology and Surgery for Continence Division of the Bambino Gesù Children’s Hospital in Rome, Italy, which involves several academic activities with different universities in Rome (Sapienza, Campus BioMedico, Tor Vergata, UniCamillus) and the University of Genova. He is the Director of a training-host centre for Pediatric Urology recognised by the European Society of Pediatric Urology (ESPU), the European Association of Urology (EAU), and the Societe International d’Urologie (SIU).

His clinical activity and research are focused on surgical reconstruction of the lower urinary tract in spina bifida, anorectal malformation, urogenital sinus, bladder exstrophy, posterior urethral valves, and for treatment of obstructive and refluxing megaureter, stones and hypospadias. Her special interest in Pediatric Urology is reconstructive surgery in neurogenic bladder dysfunction.
