Sixteen symptom-free siblings of children with vesicoureteral reflux were found to have the condition and underwent renal scintigraphy with technetium 99m dimercaptosuccinic acid. Of these 16 children, 6 had scintigraphic evidence of renal damage. Screening for vesicoureteral reflux in siblings of children known to have the condition should therefore be carried out early in life; when reflux is present, an immediate assessment of the renal parenchyma should be made.
发现16名患有膀胱输尿管反流的儿童的无症状兄弟姐妹也患有该病，并接受了99m锝二巯基丁二酸肾闪烁扫描。在这16名儿童中，6名有肾损伤的闪烁扫描证据。因此，对于已知患有膀胱输尿管反流的儿童的兄弟姐妹，应在其幼年时进行膀胱输尿管反流筛查；当存在反流时，应立即对肾实质进行评估。
