Biografía

Dr Anna Bujons is the Head of the Paediatric Urology Unit.

She holds a PhD in Medicine and Surgery from the University of Barcelona and is a specialist in Urology. She received her PhD Cum Laude in June 2011 from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) with the thesis entitled "Sexuality in spina bifida". She also holds a master's degree in Cosmetic and Aesthetic Medicine from the University of Barcelona.

Her current work lines focus on the diagnosis and treatment of congenital genitourinary malformations in children and adolescents that are monitored until adulthood, apart from minimally invasive surgery.

Her main lines of clinical research are the management of bladder exstrophy, the comprehensive management of urinary lithiasis in children and urinary malformations of the upper and lower urinary tract, as well as basic research on adipose-derived stem cells for reconstructions of the lower urinary tract.

Moreover, she addresses the following disorders, treatments and areas of specialisation:

  • Minimally invasive surgery
  • Robot-assisted surgery
  • Paediatric endourology
  • Orphan genitourinary diseases
  • Childhood enuresis
  • Hypospadias
  • Urinary tract infections
  • Primary obstructive megaureter
  • Vesicoureteral reflux
  • Pyeloureteral junction syndrome
  • Neurogenic bladder

She combines her profession and teaching as a professor at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) and master's courses in Paediatric Urology and Andrology.
