Name of journal: UrologyAbstract: Copyright � 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.Over the last 5 decades, health-care advances have yielded quantum improvements in the life expectancy of individuals with congenital genitourinary conditions (CGCs), leading to a crisis of care. Many individuals with CGC enter adulthood unprepared to manage their condition. Pediatric CGC specialists lack training to manage adulthood-related health-care issues, whereas adult genitourinary specialists lack training within the context of CGCs. To address these challenges, the National Institutes of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases convened individuals with CGCs and experts from a variety of fields to identify research needs to improve transitional urology care. This paper outlines identified research needs.All authors: Bavendam T, Dicianno BE, Dosa NP, Gomez-Lobo V, Hsieh MH, Mattoo TK, Misseri R, Norton JM, Sawin KJ, Scal P, Star RA, Wood HM, Wright JE 3rdFiscal year: FY2017Digital Object Identifier:
