60 children with chronic renal failure caused by inborn urinary tract abnormalities were examined. It was detected that cysto-ureteral refluxes (65% of causes) were most frequent causes of chronic renal failure. Renal function was estimated in the time of diagnosis of the urinary tract abnormalities and after (between 6 months to 16 years). Renal function was impaired in 37% patients when the urinary tract abnormalities were recognised. Diagnosis of the inborn urinary tract abnormalities was delayed in spite of visible clinical manifestation of disease.
