Posterior Urethral Valves: Multivariate Analysis of Factors Affecting the Final Renal Outcome

Abstract

Our data confirm the high prognostic value of nadir creatinine after primary valve ablation. Also, initial serum creatinine, creatinine clearance and renal parenchymal echogenicity on initial renal ultrasound correlate significantly with long-term renal function in children with posterior urethral valves.
