BACKGROUND: The aim of the study was to evaluate the incidence of primary vesicoureteral reflux in siblings of children with reflux. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Ninety-four subjects aged 2-6, the siblings of children with reflux were examined. Our methods included: urinalysis, urine cultures, ultrasound examination of abdominal cavity in all the examined subjects. Voiding cystography was conducted in selected cases. RESULTS: Primary vesicoureteral reflux was found in the total of 10% of the siblings of children with reflux. The incidence of reflux was the highest in the youngest age group. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of primary vesicoureteral reflux in the siblings of affected children being at least ten times higher than population risk supports the necessity of screening in this group.

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of conservative treatment of primary vesicoureteral reflux. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Material included 179 children aged 1-15. Methods included voiding cystography in all the patients. Normal result of the examination was assumed as the regression of reflux. RESULTS: Conservative treatment resulted in the regression of 58% of I degree-IV degree refluxes. CONCLUSIONS: The most significant factors determining the efficacy of conservative treatment of primary vesicoureteral reflux are: reflux grade and child's age at diagnosis.

20 children between ages 6 and 15 who suffered from epilepsy classified according to suggestions of International League Against Epilepsy to partial seizures evolving to generalized seizures were tested otoneurologically. The aim of the study was to estimate the frequency and location of vestibular disturbances coexisting with the disease. Subjective and objective (using electronystagmography--ENG--and videonystagmography--VNG) otoneurological study was performed. Dizziness was noted in most cases. Nobody demonstrated normal ENG/VNG recordings and the character of the pathology suggested its central origin. Eye-tracking proof and optokinetic nystagmus (cortical and subcortical) revealed to be most helpful during diagnostic procedures. No correlation between the location of EEG pathological patterns and ENG pathological signs was proved.
