Comparison 0f Ultrasound Findings with Voiding Cystourethrography in Detecting Vesicoureteral Reflux in Children
Background & Aims: Vesicoureteral Reflux (VUR) is a common urinary tract disorder among pediatric population and defined as the retrograde flow of urine from the bladder into the ureters and renal collecting systems due to a failure in the ureterovesical valve function (1). Identifying children with VUR at an early age provides an opportunity to prevent episodes of acute pyelonephritis and the ...
متن کاملcomparison of renal ultrasound and voiding cystourethrography (vcug) in the detection of vesicoureteral reflux
introduction: this study evaluates the accuracy of renal ultrasonography (us) in the detection of vesicoureteral reflux (vur) compared to voiding cystourethrography (vcug). methods: we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 131 children with urinary tract infection. ultrasound findings were considered to be suggestive of vur if a “pelvocalyceal dilatation”‚ “retrovesical ureteral dilat...
متن کاملRenal Cortical Abnormalities in Siblings of Index Patients With Vesicoureteral Reflux
OBJECTIVE: Screening siblings of index patients with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) has been proposed to identify children who are at risk for renal damage. However, screening siblings for VUR remains controversial. We investigated the prevalence of VUR and renal cortical abnormalities in the sibling population in a large cohort of families with VUR. METHODS: Between 1998 and 2012, parents of inde...
