title: Relation of length of submucous segment of the ureter to lesions of the renal parenchyma in children.
abstract: The possible relationship between the length of the submucous ureteral segment and frequency and degree of renal parenchymal injury was analysed in children with urinary tract infection and vesico-ureteral reflux. If the grade of reflux was disregarded, no relation was found to exist between these parameters.
