Endoscopic treatment of vesicoureteral reflux in children.
Endoscopic surgery for vesicoureteral reflux involves injection of a substance beneath the ureterovesical junction (UVJ) to buttress this region. In children, this procedure typically is performed under anesthesia on an outpatient basis, with minimal postoperative pain and a rapid recovery.
