Urodynamics investigation on children with vesicoureteral reflux identifies overactive bladder and poor compliance in those with voiding dysfunction

Background Up to 50% of children with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) may have associated voiding dysfunction. It is thought to be an important determinate of the severity and resolution of VUR; however, to date there has been no objective measurement defining the impact of voiding dysfunction in children with VUR. The purpose of this study is to compare the urodynamic parameters of children with VUR who have and do not have symptomatic voiding dysfunction.
