초록

목적:수신증은 요로 감염 환아의 30%에서 발견된다. 수신증은 다양한 원인에 의해 발생할 수 있으나, 대부분은 선천성인 것으로 알려져 있다. 저자들은 발열성 요로 감염과 수신증과의 관련성을 알아보았다. 방법:2007년 1월부터 2009년 5월까지 고대구로병원에서 요로 감염 진단을 받은 183명의 의무 기록을 후향적으로 분석하였다. 결과:수신증이 있는 환아는 80명, 수신증이 없는 환아는 103명이었다. 수신증이 있는 환아 중 58명이 왼쪽, 8명이 오른쪽, 14명이 양쪽에 수신증이 관찰되었으며, 대부분의 수신증 등급은 경도였다. 수신증이 없는 군과 비교 시, 신스캔 상의 초기 신결손이 수신증이 있는 군에서 유의하게 관찰되었다(수신증이 있는 군 37.5%, 수신증이 없는 군 16.5%, P <0.05). 방광 요관 역류의 발병률은 두 군 간에 차이를 보이지 않았다(수신증이 있는 군 22%, 수신증이 없는 군 12.1%). 백혈구 수치와 C 반응 단백 수치는 두 군 간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 요로 감염을 앓은 후 약 6개월 째 시행한 신스캔 추적 검사 상에서도 신결손의 호전 여부 및 신반흔 발생은 두 군 간의 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결론:저자들은 열성 요로 감염이 있는 환아의 수신증이 초기 신결손을 예측하는데 임상적으로 유용하나, 추적 검사 상의 신 반흔과는 관련이 없음을 제시하는 바이다.

Abstract

Purpose:Hydronephrosis is found about 30% of children with urinary tract infection (UTI). It can be caused by various conditions, although most childhood hydronephrosis is congenital. This study was performed to investigate the relationship between febrile UTI and hydronephrosis. Methods:We retrospectively reviewed the medical charts of 183 patients diagnosed as UTI between January 2007 and May 2009 at Korea University Guro Hospital. Inclusion criteria were as followings; 1) fever more than 37.5℃ measured in the axilla , 2) positive urine culture, 3) no history of urinary tract anomaly on antenatal sonography and urinary tract infection. We classified the enrolled children into two groups of patients with hydronephrosis (HN) and those without hydronephrosis (NHN). Results:The 80 patients were HN and 103 patients NHN. Hydronephrosis was found in 58 patients with left kidney, 8 right and 14 both kidneys. Most of hydronephrosis were of low grade. Compared with NHN group, initial renal cortical defects on DMSA scan significantly increased in HN group (HN 37.5%, NHN 16.5%, P<0.05). The incidence of VUR was not different between the two groups (HN 22%, NHN 12.1%). White blood cell counts and C-reactive protein were not different between the two groups. Follow-up DMSA scan (about 6 months later after UTI) showed no difference of renal scarring in both two groups. Conclusion:Our data suggests that hydronephrosis in febrile UTI patients is clinically useful for detecting renal cortical defects, but is not associated with follow-up renal scar.
