Vesicoureteral reflux: From prophylaxis to surgery

Abstract: Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is one of the most common pathologies encountered in pediatric urology. Better understanding of the evolution of VUR and new endoscopic surgical techniques in the last decades have led to major changes in the management of this pathology. However, the treatment algorithm remains complex and is composed of a wide variety of options, from active surveillance to surgical treatment. Herein, we propose to review treatment options for VUR in order to help clinicians make the right treatme… Show more

“…Results and discussion. Assessment of age distribution showed that the number of children of junior and preschool age (p <0.001) ( Table) was statistically more significant, which corresponded to world statistics on the age distribution of patients with VUR [9][10][11][12][13].…”

“…Surgical treatment can be classified into two main groups. The first group includes endoscopic surgeries, which refers to the endoscopic sub ureteric injection of bulking agent to create support to the intravesical ureters without obstructing the urine's antegrade flow, at the same time allowing maturation and elongation of the ureter's intramural tunnel [13][14][15]. The second group includes ureteral reimplantation via open, laparoscopic, and robotic approaches [15,16].…”

“…En el estudio de Blais et col., en 2017, mencionan que la retención urinaria transitoria descrita en la literatura para el abordaje extravesical, es secundaria a la denervación durante la detrusotomia, que puede alterar la contractilidad del detrusor y con ello causar tanto retención urinaria como disfunción miccional. 7 En nuestra serie, la tasa de retención fue de un 10,5%, siendo la frecuencia más alta encontrada en la literatura la de 15%. 1 Respecto a las malformaciones urológicas en nuestra población, tan solo el 22,4% presentó alguna anomalía asociada, siendo la más frecuente los divertículos vesicales, seguida de los dobles sistemas colectores, encontrándose solo un paciente con ITU POP con alteración anatómica, que además cursaba con disfunción miccional.…”
