[Treatment of primary vesicorenal reflux in adults. Apropos of 71 case reports].

The authors report a series of seventy one cases of vesico-renal reflux in adults. Renal scarring was present in 76% of the cases, and in 11.5%, the kidneys were destroyed. The reflux was eliminated in 95.5% of the cases treated by the Leadbetter-Politano, Cohen and Glenn Anderson procedures, but a failure rate of 26% was registered with the Lich Grégoir technique. 26.5% of the patients presented with persistent urinary tract infection six months after the successful surgical correction of the reflux.
