The bladder is the hollow, muscular organ that stores urine before urination occurs. The bladder has three small openings: two connect the ureters where urine is drained down from the kidneys, and one connects the bladder to the urethra where urine exits the body. The ureters are funnel-shaped tubes that carry urine from the kidneys. Ureters enter the bladder at a diagonal angle and have a special one-way valve system that normally prevents urine from flowing back up the ureters in the direction of the kidneys. When a child has vesicoureteral reflux, as this condition is most frequently diagnosed in infancy and childhood, the mechanism that prevents the back-flow of urine does not work, allowing urine to flow in both directions. A child who has vesicoureteral reflux is at risk for developing recurrent kidney infections, which, over time, can cause damage and scarring to the kidneys.

    Extractions: Main Diseases and Conditions Most children with urinary tract infections, especially if they are younger than five years old will need some testing done to make sure that they do not have urinary reflux, or vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). This is a condition that causes urine to move backwards from the bladder, through one or both of the ureters, and up to the kidneys. It is especially important to test children under 2-5 years old with a UTI and older children that have more than one infection. Up to 50% of children with a UTI may have reflux on further testing. Related Topics Urinary Tract Infections Vesicoureteral reflux can either be primary , due to an intrinsic anatomic deformity of the ureterovesical junction (where the ureter enters the bladder), which is usually congenital and eventually resolves spontaneously in most cases.

    Extractions: Explanation Terms Diagnosis ... Treatment To understand vesicoureteral ( ves -ih-ko-yu- ree -ter-ul) reflux, it is necessary to first understand the normal structure and function of the urinary tract. The urinary system Blood in the body passes through the kidneys. The kidneys filter the liquid waste products out of the blood. This liquid waste (urine) passes through the ureters and into the bladder. When the bladder is full, the child has the urge to urinate. During urination, when the child goes to the bathroom, the urine passes through the urethra, a tube which carries the urine out of the body. Reflux With children who have vesicoureteral reflux, the urine backflows or refluxes from the bladder up the ureters towards the kidneys. Reflux is caused by a faulty valve mechanism between the ureter and bladder. It is a condition with which people are born. It tends to run in families. If your child has reflux, your healthcare provider may recommend testing for the condition in your other children. Reflux becomes a problem when urine becomes infected. Infected urine usually stays within the bladder. When reflux exists, however, bacteria can get into the kidneys and cause a kidney infection. This can lead to kidney damage.

A Child's Bill of Rights Vesicoureteral Reflux Vesicoureteral reflux, or "reflux," is a condition affecting about 1 percent of children, girls more commonly than boys. In children with reflux, urine travels back up from the bladder into the kidneys. Normally, this is prevented by a special valve mechanism. As the bladder fills, the ureter, which carries urine from the kidney, becomes compressed preventing urine from traveling back up into the kidney. In children with reflux, this mechanism doesn’t work. Reflux is also more likely in children with obstructed bladders or certain neurologic problems. Reflux itself is usually of no consequence; it is when reflux is associated with a urinary tract infection (UTI) that problems can begin, including kidney infection, with possible permanent scarring of the kidneys. In the worst cases, this scarring can lead to high blood pressure and even kidney failure.

    Extractions: The normal flow of urine begins in the collecting system of each kidney. Urine then flows out of each kidney and into a tube called the ureter. Each ureter leads into the bladder, where the urine collects until it is passed out of the body. Normally, urine should flow only in this direction. In vesicoureteral reflux, however, urine that has already collected in the bladder is able to flow backwards from the bladder, up the ureter, and back into the collecting system of the kidney. VUR may be present in either one or both ureters. Vesicoureteral reflux causes damage to the kidneys in two ways: The kidney is not designed to withstand very much pressure. When VUR is present, backpressure of the urine on the kidney is significant. This can damage the kidney. The kidney is usually sterile, meaning that no bacteria are normally present within it. In VUR, bacteria that enter through the urinary tract may be carried back up the ureter with the urine. These bacteria can enter the kidney, causing severe infection.
