title: Concentrating ability after antireflux operation.
abstract: Children undergoing surgical correction of reflux require short-term and long-term assessment of the functional, bacteriological and radiologic results. In short-term assessment concentrating ability may be a more sensitive indicator of benefit or harm than creatinine clearance. There were no cases of persistent reflux and a 7 per cent obstruction rate in 59 ureteral reimplantations in 36 children.
