“…The length of history was significantly longer in patients with primary reflux than those whose reflux was secondary.

“…The reported incidence of vesico-ureteric reflux in adults is variable. Estes and Brooks (1970), after studying 903 cystourethrographies in adults with chronic urinary infections, obstructive uropathy, neurogenic bladder incontinence and urinary trauma, found 5% to have reflux, but other authors quote incidences varying from 4 to 25% (Valadka et al, 1960; Dodge, 1963; Ross, 1965). It is likely that the apparent increase in the diagnosis of reflux may be due to the more frequent use of micturating cystourethrography (Lipsky and Chisholm, 1971) in the investigations of the adult urinary tract.…”

Estos pacientes están a riesgo de presentar deterioro de la función renal, debido a la presencia de infecciones recurrentes, RVU, elevadas presiones intravesicales y anormalidades en el uréter 3 .…”
