OBJECTIVES High-grade vesicoureteral reflux (VUR, grade IV or V) is a risk factor for renal scarring, impaired renal function, and arterial hypertension. Voiding cystourethrography is the gold standard for detecting the severity of VUR. High-grade VUR is present in the minority of children with urinary tract infection (UTI), thus exposing the majority to invasive diagnostics that have no surgic...
Purpose: Partial resection of the distal ureter is commonly performed during reconstructive surgery in pediatric urology; particularly for correction of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and ureterovesical junction obstruction (UVJO). Many hospitals require pathologic examination of all excised tissues. We examined the pathologic findings in such specimens to evaluate the utility of this practice. Me...
Evaluation of the relative merits of medical versus surgical management of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) has been limited by the few prospective studies comparing these strategies. Among those trials that have been reported, the only consistent positive finding has been that incidence of febrile UTI is lower among children undergoing surgical treatment in comparison with medical treatment. Studie...
Background: Routine diagnostic methods of Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) are invasive and can cause exposure to radiation and may increase risk of urinary tract infections. Therefore, introducing reliable, non invasive methods might be more interested in pediatric nephrology. The objective of this perspective case control study was to evaluate the prognostic value of urinary neutrophil-gelatinase ...
Evaluation of the VANRIS Injection Success Rate in Vesicoureteral Reflux (VUR) Treatment in Children
Background: Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a common condition among children. Although, subureteral injection is a minimally invasive new method for VUR treatment, ideal bulking agent in endoscopic treatment still remains controversial. We aimed to evaluate VANTRIS subureteral injection efficacy in VUR treatment in pediatric patients. Materials and Methods: All patients who referred to Imam Kho...
We compared newly developed radionuclide cystography with conventional contrast voiding cystography (VCG) with regard to their diagnostic usefulness of intrarenal reflux (IRR) in children. Based on the imaging findings, we assessed the role of IRR in the pathogenesis of reflux nephropathy (RN). Among the ureters which revealed IRR diagnosed by radionuclide cystography, 38.9% (7 out of 18 ureter...
Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), a common congenital urinary tract anomaly, refers to retrograde flow of urine from the bladder into the upper urinary tract. The main goal in the treatment of pediatric VUR is to preserve renal function by preventing pyelonephritis. Many surgical management options are available for pediatric VUR. Open ureteral reimplantation has a high success rate but is invasive ...
INTRODUCTION Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) occurs in 20-50% of children suffering from recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) and is associated with an increased risk of renal scarring and impaired renal function. Early detection of renal perfusion deterioration would allow for the implementation of more aggressive treatment and potentially prevent further damage to the renal parenchyma. The a...
Background: Experience with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) differs in different centers and there is plenty of controversies. Objective: To evaluate the outcome of primary VUR complications and the rate of recurrence of UTI. Methods: In a retrospective study, the medical charts of all infants and children with primary VUR who were followed up by one nephrologist were reviewed. During 16 years, 271...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the accuracy of an acute (99m)Tc-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scan in predicting dilating vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) among young children with a febrile urinary tract infection (UTI). METHODS The medical records of children (≤ 2 years of age), presenting with febrile UTI between January 2000 and December 2011, were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS A total of 523 ch...
