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 in the Detection of Vesicoureteral Reflux
Background: This study evaluates the accuracy of renal ultrasonography (US) in the detection of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) compared to voiding cystourethrography (VCUG). Martials and 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 uret...

متن کاملThe Clinical Significance of Intrarenal Reflux in Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG)
PURPOSE Intrarenal reflux (IRR) occurs in 3-10% of cases of total reflux and can lead to renal injury, which may eventually result in renal scarring. In this study, we evaluated the clinical importance of IRR detected by voiding cystourethrography and evaluated the relationship between IRR and renal scarring. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2002 to May 2008, 50 patients who were diagnosed ...
متن کاملMR Voiding Cystourethrography (MRVC) for Vesicoureteric Reflux in unsedated infants
Introduction Vesico-ureteric reflux (VUR) is a congenital disorder of the paediatric renal tract, which allows the retrograde passage of urine up to the renal pelvis, predisposing to renal infection and consequential scarring, hypertension and renal failure. The current gold standard for diagnosis is the Micturating Cystourethrogram (MCUG), allowing snap-shot imaging of the urethra, bladder and...
