[|Human|] when i was a child i had an operation on my kidneys i dont know what/why it was for and also how much it would have cost i have a 6/8 inch scar on my left side above my hip and two closed over holes in my back like a small crater the only information i had on the operation was my waste was leaking back up into my kidneys
[|AI|]  HelloThanks for your query. Based on the information that you have posted I would state that you had what is called as Mexico Ureteric Reflux.(OUR). Normally when one passes urine during micturition urine does not go back upwards due to competent mechanism that prevents reverse flow of urinal to ureter. But in OUR disease this mechanism is deranged due to weakness in intramural portion of ureter causing urine to flow retrograde in ureter and kidney causing UTI and damage to kidney what is called as Reflex Nephropathy. Since you have been operated in childhood and based on the description I think you have undergone anti-reflux surgery. You can get present status of your kidney function by doing following radiological tests 1)MVP.2)MCU and DMS scan. Thanks and Regards. Chat Doctor.
