This article discusses the issues of medical rehabilitation of children with megaureter with concomitant neurogenic bladder dysfunction. Objective of the study: scientific substantiation of the use of selective chromotherapy in medical rehabilitation of children with megaureter with concomitant neurogenic bladder dysfunction. Materials and research methods: clinical observations and special studies were carried out in dynamics in 40 children, aged 1 to 7, with megaureter after ureteral surgery. Of these, 20 children made up the main group (received selective chromotherapy, blue spectrum); 20 children — the control group (without physiotherapy). Based on the studies carried out, a beneficial effect of medical rehabilitation with the inclusion of selective chromotherapy in children with megaureter and concomitant neurogenic bladder dysfunction was revealed. The inclusion of selective chromotherapy in the program of medical rehabilitation of children with megaureter contributed to a decrease in the activity of inflammation in the renal parenchyma (decrease in proteinuria, leukocyturia). Selective chromotherapy had a positive effect on the urodynamics of the lower urinary tract (reduction in the number of urgent urges and episodes of urinary incontinence, decreased frequency of urination, improved uroflowmetry indicators). The effectiveness of medical rehabilitation with the inclusion of selective chromotherapy was 80.0 %, while in the control group — 40.0 %.
