Abstract
Bilateral high-grade VUR in patients with neuropathic bladder persist after bladder augmentation in nearly half of patients. Half of those develop pyelonephritis during follow-up. Therefore, at the time of bladder augmentation for noncompliant neuropathic bladder, concomitant antireflux surgery should be performed for all patients with bilateral high-grade VUR.
