Relationship between urinary infection and orificial insufficiency of prostatic ducts in infancy and childhood.
A review of the radiographs obtained at 200 unselected micturition urethrocystographies in boys revealed orificial insufficiency of prostatic ducts (OIPD) in 29. Urinary infection had been demonstrated in 131 these cases including all of the boys with OIPD except one, who had neurogenic dysfunction of the urinary bladder. --In one boy OIPD was discovered at the age of 7 weeks following treatment first for neonatal sepsis and then for urinary infection, both caused by the same phage type  of Staphylococcus aureus. Bacteriologic examination of the blood and urine had suggested recovery, but further investigated disclosed survival of the bacteria in the prostate.
