Abstract:Purpose: to define the resolution rate of high-grade vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in on-to-three-year follow-up, and determine the new renal scar development.
Methods: This longitudinal study was performed in children < 18 years with high-grade VUR from March 2003 to 2022. Patients who underwent radionuclide cystography 12-36 months after the diagnosis of VUR enrolled in the study and the resolution rate of VUR was calculated. Those who performed technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid scans as baseline and f… Show more
