Background and Objective: Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is one of the most common urinary tract abnormalities in patients with urinary tract infection. Nowadays noninvasive diagnostic methods are suggested to recognize VUR and its severity. Methods: We measured urinary and serum fibronectin in 51 children with VUR. Results: The mean serum fibronectin was 318.3±112.1 in chi...

OBJECTIVES To identify risk factors for recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) and renal scarring in children who have had 1 or 2 febrile or symptomatic UTIs and received no antimicrobial prophylaxis. METHODS This 2-year, multisite prospective cohort study included 305 children aged 2 to 71 months with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) receiving placebo in the RIVUR (Randomized Intervention for Ve...
Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), the retrograde flow of urine from the bladder toward the kidney, is congenital and often familial. VUR is common in childhood, but its precise prevalence is uncertain. It is about 10–20% in children with antenatal hydronephrosis, 30% in siblings of patient with VUR and 30–40% in children with a proved urinary tract infection (UTI). Ultrasonography is a u...
PURPOSE To determine prevalence and risk factors for renal scar in children referred for urologic assessment of febrile UTI and/or VUR. METHODS Pre-determined risk factors for renal scar were prospectively recorded in consecutive patients referred for UTI/VUR. Age, gender, VUR grade, and reported number of febrile and non-febrile UTIs were analyzed with logistic regression to determine risk f...
PURPOSE Endoscopic treatment (ET) has become a widely accepted procedure for treating vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). However, patients followed up after ET over long periods have reported persistent or recurrent VUR. We evaluated the natural course of failed ET in patients who required further treatments to help physicians in making decisions on the treatment of VUR. MATERIALS AND METHODS We re...
PURPOSE We determine if the incidence and grade of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) differs in children based on age, race and gender, and if the incidence and severity of VUR are related to race in girls younger than 7 years presenting for evaluation after urinary tract infection (UTI). MATERIALS AND METHODS The records of all children who underwent a voiding cystourethrogram or radionuclide cyst...
The prevalence of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) among siblings of children with VUR has been reported to be from 4.7% to 51%. The incidence of VUR in the general population is less than 1% but it is high in risk groups. In a prospective study we started identifying the incidence and severity of VUR and renal parenchymal lesions in the siblings of patients known to have urinary tract infection (UT...
UNLABELLED The current management of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) focuses on the prevention of urinary tract infections (UTI), with curative surgery being limited to those children that fail conservative measures. This is based on the assumption that UTIs are preventable with the use of prophylatic antibiotics, leading to reduction of renal scarring, and the possibility that VUR in children can ...
Primary vesicoureteric reflux (VUR) is one of the more common genetic disorders. Little is yet known about the genetics of this potentially manageable childhood condition, which is characterised by regurgitation of urine from the bladder to the kidney. The VUR phenotype is associated with shortness of the submucosal segment of the ureter due to congenital lateral ectopia of the ureteric orifice...
