Identifying factors involved in development of urolithiasis in children with VUR is immensely important. This study was conducted to determine the association between hypercalciuria and hyperuricosuria with VUR in children. One-hundred children with VUR (case group) were compared to 100 healthy children (control group) in terms of hypercalciuria and hyperuricosuria. To measure these markers, random morning fasting urine samples were used. Data were analyzed using statistical tests.
