چکیده
hematuria in children. The incidence of gross hematuria in children is estimated to be 0.13%. In more than half of the cases (56%) this is due to an easily identifiable cause(1). Asymptomatic microscopic hematuria is tenfold as prevalent as gross hematuria. Most cases of microscopic hematuria in children are transient, and with repeated evaluations, the prevalence decreases to less than 0.5%(2, 3). Coexistent hematuria and proteinuria signal the presence of significant renal disease.
