Özet

Objectives. To analyze the relationship among non-neurogenic voiding dysfunction, vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), and renal scarring, taking into consideration whether the reflux was unilateral or bilateral. VUR is a common problem in the pediatric age group. Although unilateral reflux is usually due to primary insufficiency of the vesicoureteral junction, bilateral reflux can also be the result of underlying voiding dysfunction.
