Sažetak
Since 1982 the correlation of x-ray findings and radioisotope treatments was investigated in 18 children with vesicoureteral reflux. Its aim was to determine the level of functional renal lesion. With radiologically still invisible inflammatory changes a depression of renal function is already present. It is found either as reduced tubular mass or drainage hindrances in eliminatory segment which unfortunately cannot be, in majority of cases, stopped by a surgery. Therefore the radioisotopic investigation of renal function is of the utmost importance in cases without radiologically visible inflammatory changes in order to indicate a surgery in time.
