Radiographic findings in children surveyed for enuresis.
Over a one-year period 216 children had a radiographic survey of their urinary tracts performed for the evaluation of enuresis with many of these having a precedent history of urinary infection as well. Significant urinary tract abnormalities were found in 27 per cent of the children. Clinical correlation was obtained in 135 of these children with 19.3 per cent requiring surgery. The groups of children with a history of diurnal enuresis or urinary infection were quite different from the group with nocturnal enuresis alone. These differences are discussed.
