Familial Vesicoureteral Reflux
Keyword(s):
In Reply.— We are happy to address Dr Roscelli's concerns regarding our paper on familial reflux screening; we are not in complete agreement with him, however. First of all, the incidence of vesicoureteral reflux in the healthy human being is accepted as being 0.4% to 1.8%.1 The only study to show a significantly higher rate was the Kollerman study referred to by Dr Roscelli. This study has been roundly criticized because it was performed with high pressure injection, and it is the only such study to show a high rate of reflux in healthy children.
