Introduction: The role of voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) in evaluating vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in patients with known ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) remains unclear. While VCUG is frequently performed, the incidence of concomitant VUR and UPJO is low, and VUR is often low-grade with high rates of spontaneous regression.
Objective: To analyze the clinical relevance of VCUG in patients with UPJO by determining its incidence and studying the difference in clinical outcomes between patients with known, unknown, and negative VUR.
