Bilateral vesico-ureteral reflux with pyelonephritis in identical twins. 1975

N Hampel, and D R Levin, and I Gersh

A case of identical twins with bilateral vesico-ureteral reflux is presented. This case supports the hypothesis that primary vesico-ureteral incompetence may be an inherited lesion. The importance of investigating close relatives, especially identical twins, is stressed.
