Summary
102 urologically normal children aged from 2 days up to 5 years had been examined by micturition cystography. In 29 cases (30%) an unilateral and bilateral vesico-uretheral reflux was found. Vesico-uretheral reflux was found more frequent in infants than in elder children. Therefore we consider vesico-uretheral reflux a normal phenomenon in infants and children up to 3 years.
Zusammenfassung
Es wurden 102 urologisch normale Kinder im Alter von 2 Tagen bis zu 5 Jahren miktions-cysto-urethrographisch untersucht. Dabei konnte 29mal ein vesico-ureteraler Reflux dargestellt werden. Eine Häufung der refluxpositiven Fälle zeigte sich im Säuglingsalter. Diese Ergebnisse veranlassen uns, dem vesico-ureteralen Reflux, tritt er bei urologisch gesunden Säuglingen und Kleinkinder bis zu einer Altersgruppe von ca. 3 Jahren auf, keine pathologische Bedeutung beizumessen.
