What is Understanding Vesicoureteral Reflux in Children about?
Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a condition where urine flows backward from the bladder into the ureter and kidneys, often present at birth due to abnormal ureter entry into the bladder. It is graded I-V based on the severity of backflow, with lower grades more likely to resolve on their own. Diagnosis is typically through a voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG), and treatment may involve monitoring, antibiotics, or surgery for higher grades or recurrent urinary tract infections.
