@entity154 in the genitourinary tract are the leading associated anomalies in @entity1 with @entity2463 ( @entity2463 ). Certain anomalies such as @entity3025 ( @entity3025 ) may cause permanent @entity8 . OBJECTIVE: To review associated @entity9802 in-cases of @entity2463 and evaluate the efficacy of ultrasonography in detecting @entity3025 . MATERIAL AND METHOD: Retrospective review of 183 @entity1 with @entity2463 undergoing anoplasty between 1988-2001. RESULTS: @entity790 were found in 14 per cent (26 cases). @entity5450 were detected in 25.6 per cent (47 cases), with a higher incidence in @entity154 . The most common @entity1729 was @entity3041 , which resolved spontaneously in most of them. @entity3025 was found in 16 cases (21 refluxing units) or 20 per cent of @entity1 to whom voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) was done. Sonography detected hydroureter and/or @entity3041 in 3 of 21 refluxing units, despite 17 of them being grade three or more. Half of the cases with reflux had @entity293 at least once in the follow-up period despite normal initial urinalysis. Parenchymal scar was positive in four cases with @entity3025 . CONCLUSION: Thorough evaluation of the urinary tract is necessary in @entity1 with @entity2463 . Ultrasound is an accurate tool in the examination of the upper tract, but not sensitive enough to detect lower @entity154 , especially @entity3025 .
