The Value of Estimation of Distal Ureteral Dilatation in Primary Vesicoureteral Reflux
PURPOSE Recently, several studies have suggested that distal ureteral dilatation is an important factor influencing the spontaneous resolution of primary vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). We evaluated the relationship between distal ureteral dilatation and the spontaneous resolution of primary VUR. MATERIALS AND METHODS The medical records of 114 patients with primary VUR maintained on prophylacti...
متن کاملImprovement in vesicoureteral reflux grade on serial imaging predicts resolution.
PURPOSE When children are initially diagnosed with vesicoureteral reflux most undergo a period of antibiotic prophylaxis followed by serial imaging. Although improvement in reflux grade through time presumably predicts eventual resolution, the significance of changing grade through time is unknown. We examined whether improvement in reflux on serial imaging predicts resolution. MATERIALS AND ...
متن کاملDistal Renal Tubular Acidosis with Grade 4 Vesicoureteral Reflux in a Child with Single Kidney
Introduction Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a non-uremic defects of urinary acidification. It is characterized by a normal anion gap hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis; plasma potassium may be normal, low or high-depending on the type of RTA. These syndromes differ from uremic acidosis which is associated with a high anion gap, decreased glomerular filtration with enhanced proton secretion b...
متن کاملHigh-grade vesicoureteral reflux in Pfeiffer syndrome.
Received November 2007 Accepted March 2008 INTRODUCTION In 1964, Pfeiffer described an acrocephalosyndactyly syndrome consisting of bicoronal craniosynostosis, midface hypoplasia, broad thumbs, broad big toes, and partial and variable soft-tissue syndactyly of the hands and feet.(1) Autosomal dominant inheritance with complete penetrance is the main characteristic despite variable expressivity ...
متن کاملVesicoureteral reflux.
Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), the retrograde flow of urine from the bladder toward the kidney, is common in young children. About 30% of children with urinary tract infections will be diagnosed with VUR after a voiding cystourethrogram. For most, VUR will resolve spontaneously; 20% to 30% will have further infections, but few will experience long-term renal sequelae. Developmentally, VUR arises ...
