ASSOCIATED UROLOGICAL ANOMALIES IN CHILDREN WITH UNILATERAL RENAL AGENESIS

Abstract

Nearly half of the patients with unilateral renal agenesis had associated urological anomalies. Vesicoureteral reflux was the most common associated anomaly and it was usually of high grade. Early recognition and treatment of urological anomalies in a patient with a solitary kidney are imperative to decrease the long-term risk of renal damage.
