Of 250 children with vesicoureteral reflux, 23 had a renal caliceal diverticulum in one or both kidneys. In a third of these 23 children this was the only renal change noted and in the remaining two-thirds other changes of chronic pyelonephritis were seen. The presence of a caliceal diverticulum is evidence that renal damage of some degree is associated with reflux and urinary tract infection, and should be added to existing criteria for investigation of reflux in a child.
在250例膀胱输尿管反流患儿中，23例一侧或双侧肾脏存在肾盏憩室。在这23例患儿中，三分之一的患儿这是唯一观察到的肾脏改变，其余三分之二则可见慢性肾盂肾炎的其他改变。肾盏憩室的存在证明一定程度的肾损害与反流及尿路感染有关，应纳入儿童反流调查的现有标准中。
