title: [Vesicorenal reflux and kidney transplantation].
abstract: 25 (30%) out of 85 adult patients with endstage renal disease were found to have vesicoureteral reflux. In group I with 15 patients renal insufficiency was caused by kidney disease alone. In a second group 8 patients had the diagnosis chronic pyelonephritis with well documented history of urinary tract infection. In a third group 2 patients have megaloureter-megalocystis syndrome. There was no case of uncomplicated, sterile reflux in the second and third groups, which seems to be a rare cause of renal insufficiency.
