Voiding dysfunction: Outcome in infants with congenital vesicoureteral reflux

Approximately 20% of patients with vesicoureteral reflux diagnosed before 6 months of age demonstrated dysfunctional voiding after the age of toilet training. Voiding dysfunction occurred independent of sex, laterality, or severity of vesicoureteral reflux. Infants with renal damage on dimercaptosuccinic acid scan developed dysfunctional voiding only at a slightly greater, but not significantly different, rate than those with normal kidneys.
