INTRODUCTION Vesicoureteral reflux appears in 20-50% of pediatric patients with recurrent urinary tract infections. The most common method of diagnosing this disease is voiding cystourethrography. However, contemporary pediatric radiology does not favor this method due to exposure to X-radiation. AIM The aim of this study was to assess the usefulness of 2D/3D/4D contrast-enhanced voiding uros...

To identify the frequency of voiding dysfunction in patients with functional constipation, dysfunctional voiding soring system (DVSS) was surveyed in 85 patients with functional constipation. Urinalysis, culture and renal ultrasound were performed in all cases. If the child had urinary tract infection, voiding cystourethrography and DMSA scan were performed. Fifty four patients (63.5%) out of 8...

The procedure is relatively simple and cost-effective, and complications are very rare. The iatrogenic complication of VCUG range from discomfort, urinary tract infection to bacteremia, as well as bladde...
