In those patients who are not so fortunate in infancy or who were born before the era of modern reconstructive surgery, careful assessment must be made at an appropriate time as the patient goes through puberty. The commonest erectile deformity found in epispadias in adult life is tight dorsal chordee. Surgical correction is required. In some patients, adequate correction will be achieved by clearance of superficial pericorporeal scar tissue, possibly aided by Nesbit's procedure.

This is the type of question frequently asked by patients and especially by parents of children who lose one kidney in early childhood. Based on our wide experience with single-kidney rats, we will try to give an answer to this question. After the removal of its counterpart, the single remaining kidney will rapidly adapt to the new situation by a compensatory increase in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and renal mass. This is true not only for intact kidneys but also for damaged ones. The GFR level obtained by damaged kidneys will be less than that of intact single kidneys, however, depending on the degree of initial damage. The GFR is stable for a certain period of time, which is longer for intact single kidneys than for damaged kidneys and also depends on the daily protein intake; after that renal function will deteriorate. This decline in GFR is preceded by a marked increase in urinary protein excretion. Although the follow-up period is not completed yet, the survival time of single intact kidneys in rats on a normal diet is expected to be 15%-20% less than the normal rat life span. In rats on a lifelong high protein intake the kidney survival time drops to 40% below the normal rat life span. In rats on a moderately reduced protein intake, however, single intact kidneys may survive for a normal life span. The situation is worse for single damaged kidneys. Depending on the severity of the initial damage, kidney survival time will be much less than a normal life span. We studied rats with an initial recovery to 75% of renal function. Despite this initial recovery, the animals died of renal failure within 50% of the expected life span. A low-protein diet prolonged the renal survival by about 12%, a high-protein diet shortened it by the same percentage.</p>","PeriodicalId":76378,"journal":{"name":"Progress in pediatric surgery","volume":"23 ","pages":"18-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13642564","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One infant died of progressive renal failure; a slight elevation of serum creatinine levels in three children aged 4-6 years indicated a doubtful prognosis. On initial examination, ten patients showed severe unilateral or bilateral reflux. Seven of 14 refluxing units remained non-functioning and had to be removed. Following transurethral fulguration of the valves, five infants developed unilateral or bilateral reflux which was not evident on initial preoperative voiding cystograms. In contrast to those in other series, none of these refluxes ceased spontaneously. Ureteral reimplantations were done on 11 ureters of eight patients, but regression of ureteral dilatation postoperatively remained unsatisfactory in six instances, none of whom had a true mechanical obstruction.
