VUR is common in childhood, but its precise prevalence is uncertain. It is about 10&ndash;20% in children with antenatal hydronephrosis, 30% in siblings of patient with VUR and 30&ndash;40% in children with a proved urinary tract infection (UTI). Ultrasonography is a useful initial revision but diagnosis of VUR requires a voiding cystourethrography (VCUG) or radionuclide cystogram (DRNC) and echo-enhanced voiding urosonography (VUS). Although for most, VUR will resolve spontaneously, the management of children with VUR remains controversial. We summarized the literature and paid attention to the studies whose quality is not adequate in the field of VUR management of children.&nbsp;</span></span></p> Vesicoureteral Reflux, Urinary Tract Infection, Antenatal Hydronephrosis 209 214 http://caspianjp.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-34-3&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Mohsen Akhavan Sepahi 10031947532846001277 10031947532846001277 No Department of pediatric nephrology, School of Medicine, Qom University of Medical Sciences and Health Services, Qom, Iran Mostafa Sharifiain sharifian.dorche@gmail.com 10031947532846001278 10031947532846001278 Yes Department of pediatric infectious disease, School of Medicine, Qom University of Medical Sciences and Health Services, Qom, Iran
