Abstract:
We have experienced 3 cases of recurrent urinary tract infection with ureterovesical reflux under age of 10 years. Two of these patients have completely recovered after surgical reimplantantation which were confirmed by follow-up VCUG 6 to 8 month after surgery. One showed hydronephrotic change of right kidney by intravenous pyelogram taken 7 months after surgical reimplantation. A brief review of the related literature wag also presented and discussed the importance of radiological investigation in recurrent urinary tract infection.
