Vesicoureteric Reflux (VUR) is a paediatric urological condition where urine flows backward from the bladder into the ureters, and sometimes up to the kidneys. This abnormal flow increases the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and, if untreated, can lead to kidney damage or scarring.
Specialized paediatric urological care ensures early diagnosis, timely management, and the use of advanced surgical or minimally invasive techniques to protect kidney health and prevent long-term complications.
Expertise in VUR Management
Treatment is tailored based on the grade of reflux and the child’s overall health. Approaches include:
Each treatment plan is designed to address the underlying problem while safeguarding renal function and promoting the child’s healthy growth and development.
It is a condition where urine flows backward from the bladder to the kidneys, increasing the risk of infections and kidney damage.
Through specialized tests such as a Voiding Cystourethrogram (VCUG) and renal scans, along with clinical evaluation of urinary tract infections.
Not always. Mild cases may resolve with growth and careful monitoring, while higher grades may require endoscopic or surgical correction.
Endoscopic injection therapy (minimally invasive) or open/laparoscopic ureteric reimplantation to restore normal urine flow.
By combining timely diagnosis, individualized treatment planning, and advanced surgical expertise to prevent long-term renal damage.
