title: [VURD syndrome with contralateral renal dysplasia in the adult].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To report one case of VURD syndrome (posterior urethral valves, vesicoureteral reflux, and renal dysplasia) in an adult.
  
  
  METHODS
  32-year-old male patient with recurrent urinary tract infections and the diagnosis of VURD syndrome after imaging tests ond cystoscopy.
  
  
  RESULTS
  One year after valve resection the patient keeps renal function and adequate voiding without needing dialysis.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The VURD syndrome is a congenital disease, frequently with poor prognosis in the first years of life. Etiology is not clear. A cause-effect relationship between dysplasia and obstruction-reflux has been proposed; alternotively, the "theory of the bud" suggests vesicoureteral reflux and renal dysplasia are the result of an anomaly of the ureteral bud and not necessarily of obstruction and/or VURD per se.
