Underlying urological disease was primary vesicoureteral reflux in 57, congenital hydronephrosis in 9, urinary tract infection in 6, ureteral anomalies in 11, and others in 13.For the determination of EUSD in a given VCUG, EUSD was measured in consecutive films and the widest EUSD was chosen. (Part 2) Forty-three children with suspected voiding dysfunction underwent VCUG and sphincter electromyography (EUS-EMG). The findings of EUS-EMG were comparatively analyzed with EUSD.Results: (Part 1) Age-dependent increase in EUSD was seen in children with normal voiding function. EUSD (mm) was formulated as 0.166 x age (years) + 4.31 for boys (p=0.0001, r=0.374), and 0.222 x age (years) + 2.73 for girls (p<0.0001, r=0.595). Overall incidence of EUSD less than 3 mm was only 4% (8/200). (Part 2) EUS-EMG documented detrusor-sphincter incoordination in 15 children (35%). When we defined EUSD less than 3mm as a cut-off value for predicting detrusor-sphincter incoordination, the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were 93%, 89%, 82% and 96%, respectively.Conclusions: EUSD has a satisfactory sensitivity and specificity as a predictor of 2 detrusor-sphincter incoordination in children. Thus, simple measurement of EUSD on VCUG should be recommended in children with suspected voiding dysfunction before employing rather invasive urodynamic study.3
