To evaluate the clinical utility of pre-renal transplant LUT investigations in pediatric populations after their referral for transplant evaluation based on the etiology of their ESRD. A 16year retrospective review of patients undergoing RT performed at our institution was performed. Patients were stratified into two groups: Group 1-non-urologic and Group 2-urologic etiology for ESRD. Baseline characteristics, pre-transplant LUT investigations, and urologic interventions were assessed. One-year clinical outcomes were compared between those with and without LUT investigations following referral for renal transplantation (RT). 227 patients and 97 patients were identified for Groups 1 and 2, respectively. 19% of Group 1 and 73% of Group 2 had VCUG, while 1% and 13%, respectively, had UDS ordered following referral for RT. In both groups, >50% of VCUG and UDS were ordered without specific clinical concerns. These had low likelihood of prompting interventions, both pre-transplant (Group 1-VCUG 0%, UDS 0%; Group 2-VCUG 0%, UDS 8%) or post-transplant (Group 1-0%, Group 2-5%). In both groups, LUT investigation following referral for RT did not lead to differences in 1year outcomes assessed. In anticipation of pediatric RT, LUT investigations ordered without clinical indications did not provide information that altered management prior to transplantation.
