A group of 62 children (age 5-12) with vesicoureteral reflux (VR) in infancy, including those who were under either ambulatory or surgical treatment and also those whose parents didn't undergo treatment, was observed with special attention paid to the following features: evaluation of height, weight, arterial blood pressure, presence of VR, size of kidneys and renal scars in them, creatinine clearance, urine analysis and urine cultures. The analysis of studied parameters proves the necessity of constant nephrological control for many years in spite of disappearance of reflux. The reason is the high risk of recurrent urinary tract infections, arterial hypertension and worse kidney functioning. |
