The long-term follow-up of surgically treated vesicoureteric reflux. 1978

D M Wallace, and D L Rothwell, and D I Williams

We have followed up 83% of a series of 166 patients with vesicoureteric reflux who were treated surgically more than 10 years ago. We found an incidence of hypertension of 12.8%. The need for careful follow-up of the blood pressure of patients with reflux nephropathy is stressed.
