Vesicoureteral Reflux: Current Care Trends and Future Possibilities.

Although investigations over the past 2 decades have improved our understanding of the natural history of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and helped identify those at higher risk of both VUR itself as well as its potential severe sequelae, debate exists regarding key aspects of care, including when to perform diagnostic imaging and which patients benefit from continuous antibiotic prophylaxis. Artificial intelligence and machine learning have the potential to distill large volumes of granular data into practical tools that clinicians can use to guide diagnosis and management decisions. Surgical treatment, when indicated, remains highly effective and is associated with low morbidity.
