“…The under-treatment of recurrent urinary tract infection could be a risk factor for CKD stage 4 in this patient because of recurrent complicated pyelonephritis or renal scar. A randomized controlled trial in Italia evaluated the effectiveness of two years course of prophylactic antibiotics in 100 patients with grade I-III VUR [ 14 ].…”

Radiological examinations show a spastic neurogenic bladder, cystitis, right VUR grade 4. Abdominal ultrasonography (USG) results were bilateral severe hydronephrosis due to post-renal causes. This patient had a history of myelocele excision at the age of 1.5 years. He had recurrent urinary tract infection with CKD stage 4. Discussion The diagnosis of VUR and neurogenic bladder in CKD stage 4 is a rare case in nephrology. Conclusion Indonesian male confirms of diagnosis VUR grade 4, neurogenic bladder, and CKD stage 4.

Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is the retrograde flow of urine from the bladder into the upper urinary tract with or without upper-tract dilatation. This diagnosis is commonly made in childhood, affecting 1% of all births. In adults, its prevalence and incidence are not known. Presentation in adults could be with loin pain associated with voiding or a full bladder, recurrent urinary tract infections, a diagnosis carried over from childhood or an incidental finding. Most of the works on VUR have been done in the paediatric population. There are limited publications addressing VUR in adults. Unsurprisingly, the management of VUR in adults is extrapolated from the knowledge that we have gained from paediatric urology. Herein, we recap on the pathophysiology and review the surgical management of VUR in adults as published over the years.
