Aortic dilatation in children with mild to moderate chronic kidney disease.

Background: Children with mild to moderate chronic kidney disease are at an increased risk for cardiovascular sequelae, the leading cause of death in children with end-stage renal disease. We aimed to establish the prevalence of aortic dilatation, a newly recognized cardiovascular sequelae of renal disease, within a cohort of pediatric patients with mild to moderate kidney disease.

Methods: A total of 501 children enrolled in the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children study contributed imaging data between April 2011 and February 2015.
