2012, Journal of UrologyCitation Excerpt :In this study no hypertension developed in any patients during the median followup of 5.4 years. However, considering that the incidence of hypertension increases during the first 10 years in patients with reflux nephropathy,15 our followup might be too short to confirm normal blood pressure. There are 2 approaches in ureteroureterostomy according to the level of anastomosis.
Vesicoureteral reflux: Current trends in diagnosis, screening, and treatment
2012, European UrologyCitation Excerpt :This recommendation was based on contemporary understanding of reflux nephropathy, that is, that VUR in the setting of UTI leads to APN, in turn leading to renal scarring and long-term sequelae. VUR could therefore preemptively be identified and treated with CAP or surgery, thus decreasing renal outcomes such as hypertension [32–34] and renal failure [35,36]. However, there has been a gradual drift away from the 1999 AAP guidelines.
Vesicoureteral Reflux and Reflux Nephropathy
2011, Advances in Chronic Kidney DiseaseCitation Excerpt :According to a study that did survival analysis, it was estimated that 50% of patients with unilateral and bilateral renal damage would have sustained hypertension at about 30 and 22 years of age, respectively.35 In a follow-up lasting 15 years in pediatric patients with renal scarring, about 13% patients at age 20 to 31 years became hypertensive.36 The plasma rennin activity may increase in some children with renal scars as they grow older, but there is no direct correlation between BP and plasma rennin activity, plasma creatinine concentration, or degree of scarring.37
