Abstract
Videocystometry (VCM) is a combination of videography and cystometry for the investigation of vesico-ureteral refluxes and is an accurate method of reflux classification that registers intravesical pressure and volume simultaneously after X-ray detection. We investigated 86 refluxes detected by micturating cystourethrography; 21 could not be confirmed, 14 disappeared with conservative treatment, and 10 underwent surgery, because their condition became worse during examination. Especially refluxes without primary indications for operation can be verified by comparative data. This facilitates the decision to continue conservative or operative treatment.Mesh:
