Abstract
Urinary tract infection is one of the most common type of infections in neonates, with the capacity to induce neonatal jaundice which is another major emergency in neonates. However, the pathophysiology of this comorbidity is still poorly described in neonatology and the clinical implications insufficiently illustrated. The aim of this review is to contribute to shed more light over this issue in order to improve understanding and orientate therapeutic interventions. In this piece of work, we did a critical study of recent and pertinent articles on the topic available online. This enabled us to make a synthesis of current classifications of neonatal jaundice, with epidemiological, etiological and pathophysiological aspects of the comorbidity with urosepsis being discussed. We conclude with consequent therapeutic implications.
