They are considered a normal variant in that the hydronephrosis tends to be mild and self-limited, and there is no or only minimal impairment of renal function. The combination of transition in ureteric caliber and delayed excretion are the key features in the diagnosis of ureteric stricture. Although mid-ureteric strictures have been considered a rare anomaly in children, it can be readily diagnosed by MR urography, and this 10 Fig. 8a–c.
Noting only an increase on the curves is not sufficient to diagnose VUR. Movement may be a major cause of false abnormal curves. There are no contraindications to IRC; however, caution should be exercised in excluding VUR when there is dilatation with poor drainage of the upper tracts. Also in the presence of a pelvic kidney or a low ectopic kidney, the full bladder may obscure the kidney. Conclusion Only physiological cystogram is possible. No bladder catheterization is required. 3 Dynamic Renography Although dynamic renography has been used for decades, one must nevertheless ensure that the data are acquired adequately and processed according to well-established guidelines and that the interpretation of the results is based on published supported information wherever possible.
