OBJECTIVES: Nocturnal enuresis and @entity1142 are common pediatric problems. The aim of this study was to assess the incidence of @entity1142 in @entity1 with or without monosymptomatic primary nocturnal enuresis. METHODS: The study included 5350 @entity1 , ages 5-19 years, who were surveyed to detect the incidence of nocturnal enuresis. Of those surveyed, 679 (12.7%) had primary nocturnal enuresis. All @entity1 were questioned by mail with a standard form that addressed their micturition and defecation habits. The @entity1 those who had primary nocturnal enuresis were invited to the Pediatric Urology Section of the University Hospital. Of those 679 @entity1 , 125 kept that invitation. All 125 of those @entity1 underwent an abdominal ultrasound. Also, these children had serum @entity1011 levels drawn and plain abdominal films taken. RESULTS: Constipation, defined as less than 3 bowel movements per week, was seen in 48 of 679 @entity1 with nocturnal enuresis (7.06%). Of those 4671 @entity1 without nocturnal enuresis, only 68 (1.45%) had @entity1142 . The difference in @entity1142 between the two groups was statistically significant (z = -9.251; p = 0.000). Of note, 10 of the 125 @entity1 (8%), evaluated at the hospital, had @entity1142 . None of the @entity1 had an abnormal neurologic examination. Finally, faecal loading was detected on the plain films of 8 of the 125 @entity1 evaluated, 7 of who had @entity1142 . The sensitivity of grading plain films for faecal loading to denote @entity1142 in this population was 87.5%. CONCLUSIONS: @entity1 with primary nocturnal enuresis should be thoroughly assessed for coexisting @entity1142 .
