Colic as the sole symptom of urinary tract infection in infants.
Urinary tract infection was diagnosed in four infants whose sole symptom was persistent recurrent colic. There were no other clinical abnormalities. Three had abnormal radiologic findings in the urinary tract and one subsequently required nephrectomy. In the two others, radiologic findings were normal after 6 months and 1 year, respectively.
