Abstract
Forty-seven infants under the age of 2 years with vesicoureteric reflux were treated by subureteric injection of Polytef paste; 4 have completed sufficient follow-up to be analysed. The 41 patients had reflux into 60 single-system ureters and 12 duplex systems. Fifty-five single-system ureters have ceased refluxing and 4 of the remaining 5 have improved, whereas 7 of the 12 kidneys with reflux into one or both segments of a duplex system no longer reflux. Thirty-one patients had only single-system disease, and 26 (84%) are totally corrected. Of the 10 patients with 12 duplex systems that refluxed, 5 were completely corrected. Overall, 31 (76%) of the patients are free of reflux.
