The need for paediatric urological care in low-and middle-income countries in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is enormous due to a burgeoning paediatric-aged population and a disproportionate burden of congenital malformations. There are formidable challenges in the provision of a skilled workforce and appropriate infrastructure, resulting in a huge unmet need with consequent effects on the long-term health and prosperity of the population. Constraints of funding, geography, culture, surgical and anaesthetic skills, and instrumentation means that many conditions present late and with complications that could have been avoided by an earlier attendance. It also means that the management of congenital malformations, e.g., bladder exstrophy and congenital obstructive posterior urethral membrane, differ substantially from that seen in the developed world, with the outlook for children with renal failure being particularly bleak. Collaborations between paediatric urologists from high-and low-income countries are beginning to help with the development of a surgical infrastructure customised to paediatric care, and with the training of specific paediatric urological knowledge and skills. These collaborations, whilst welcome, still require substantial expansion to achieve more equitable access to appropriate paediatric urological care for children in SSA. Future efforts have to focus on the creation of sustainable and equal partnerships between urologists from low-and high-income healthcare environments, with an emphasis on providing sustainable management, appropriate to local need and available resources. The provision of shared learning, utilising the benefits of global digital communication, will improve mutual understanding of needs in a resource-poor environment and the involvement of trainees from both income settings can help perpetuate long-term collaborations.
