초록
목적:배뇨성 방광요도 조영술은 초회 열성 요로감염이 있는 환아에게서 선천성 신장 질환이나 동반된 방광요관 역류를 확인하기 위해 시행한다. 그러나 이 시술은 요로 감염에서 방광 천공까지 다양한 합병증 등이 초래될 수 있으므로 본 연구는 배뇨성 방광요도 조영술 이외에 방광요관 역류의 존재를 예측할 수 있는 인자를 알아보고자 하였다. 방법:1998년 5월부터 2005년 11월까지 약 7년간 전북대학교 병원 소아청소년과에 입원하여 소변 배양 검사상 확진된 요로 감염 환아를 대상으로 후향적으로 분석하였다. 각각의 환아들에게서 연령, 성별, 발열, 위장관 증상, 뇨 검사 및 뇨 배양, 말초혈액 백혈구수, ESR, CRP, BUN, 혈청 creatinine과 요로계 초음파 및 DMSA 신스캔 결과와 방관요관 역류의 정도를 표준화된 형식을 통해 기록하였다. 결과:총 410명의 환아 중, 방광요관 역류가 없는 그룹은 273명이었고 역류가 있는 그룹은 137명 이었다. 방광요관 역류 존재 유무에 따른 두 그룹 간에는 발열, 농뇨, 말초백혈구수, ESR, CRP의 P 값이 0.001 이하의 의미있는 차이를 나타냈다. 그러나, 방광요관 역류 정도에 따른 비교분석 결과 방광요관 역류가 낮은 군(I-II)과 높은 군(III-V) 사이에는 농뇨, 발열, 말초백혈구수, C-반응단백(CRP) 등에서 의미있는 차이를 보이지 않았다(P<0.05). 역류의 유무에 따른 영상의학적 소견의 차이를 보면, 신장 초음파는 민감도 33%, 특이도 73%를 보였으며 DMSA 신스캔은 민감도 76%, 특이도 65%를 나타내었다. 또한 역류가 심할수록 신장 초음파와 DMSA 신스캔 모두 양성률이 높았다. 결론:초회 요로감염 환아 중 발열, 농뇨 및 높은 적혈구 침강속도, C-반응단백를 보이는 경우와 DMSA 신스캔상 이상 소견을 보이는 경우는 방광요관 역류가 있을 가능성이 높으므로, 이 경우에는 반드시 배뇨성 방광요도 조영술을 시행하는 것이 좋을 것으로 사료된다.
Abstract
Purpose:The most concerning issue in children with urinary tract infection(UTI) is the probability of underlying genitourinary anomalies and vesicoureteral reflux(VUR), which is frequently associated with renal scarring and eventually end-stage renal disease. Therefore, voiding cystourethrography(VCUG) is usually recommended at the earliest convenient time for children with UTI. However, VCUG is an invasive procedure that requires catheterization and exposure to X-ray. In this study, we aimed to determine the predictability of clinical, laboratory and imaging parameters for VUR in children with UTI. Methods:Data of children with bacteriologically proven UTI who underwent VCUG were evaluated retrospectively for clinical(age, gender, fever), laboratory(leukocytosis, ESR, CRP, pyuria, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine) and imaging(renal ultrasound and DMSA renal scan) findings. First, children with UTI were divided into two groups according to the presence of VUR as non-VUR group and with VUR group, and clinical, laboratory variables were compared between these groups. Second, patients who had VUR were reclassified as low- grade VUR(grade I-II) group and high-grade(grade III-V) VUR group according to grading of VUR, and clinical, laboratory and imaging variables were compared between these groups. Results:Among 410 children with UTI, 137 had VUR and 78 high-grade VUR. Fever, leukocytosis, ESR, CRP, pyuria were associated with VUR. In addition, abnormal findings of ultrasonography and DMSA renal scan were closely related to VUR. However, these clinical and laboratory variable in patients with high grade VUR were not different significantly, compared to those with low-grade VUR group. Conclusion:Fever, leukocytosis, ESR, CRP seems to be potentially useful predictors of VUR in pediatric patients with UTI. In addition, renal ultrasonography and DMSA renal scan findings supported the presence of VUR. Further study of these findings could limit unnecessary VCUG in patients with UTI.
