The results of voiding cystouretrography performed on the 3rd postoperative month and the results of 1-year follow-up were evaluated. <b><i>Results:<\/i><\/b> A total of 45 patients (57 ureters) underwent injection of PPC. The mean age of the patients was 6.5 years. There were 6 (10.5%) grade 1, 7 (12.2%) grade 2, 26 (45.6%) grade 3, 16 (28%) grade 4, and 2 (3.5%) grade 5 VUR. There were 11 overactive bladders, 2 duplex collecting systems, and 4 posterior urethral valves among the patients. Voiding cystouretrography postoperatively at the 3rd month showed that VUR had disappeared in 82.5% (47\/57) of the ureters, downgraded to grade 2 and 3 in 7% (4\/57), persisted in 5.2% (3\/57) and upgraded in 5.2% (3\/57). The success rate at the end of the first year was 98.1%. The procedure was free of complications such as fever, dysuria, lumbar pain or obstruction in all patients. No patient showed VUR recurrence at the end of the first year. <b><i>Conclusions:<\/i><\/b> The short-term results of our patients suggested that PPC can be safely and successfully used in the endoscopic treatment of VUR in children. However, further prospective, controlled trials showing the long-term results of the patients are needed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000354879","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,27]],"date-time":"2014-02-27T07:50:20Z","timestamp":1393487420000},"page":"219-222","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Early Results of Endoscopic Treatment of Vesicoureteral Reflux with Polyacrylate Polyalcohol Copolymer"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"92","author":[{"given":"Arzu","family":"\u015eencan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ba\u015fak","family":"U\u00e7an","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"H\u00fcseyin","family":"Evciler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Erkin","family":"Serdaro\u011flu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M\u00fcnevver","family":"Ho\u015fg\u00f6r","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/adc.48.1.8"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.1984.03340480059030"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005392-200001000-00078"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005392-199605000-00059"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.ju.0000138381.75175.b9"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005392-199809020-00019"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.289.6436.7"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4321\/S0004-06142008000200023"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005392-199705000-00093"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-5347(05)00210-7"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.juro.2009.10.047"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpurol.2010.11.010"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpurol.2012.11.007"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1464-410x.2001.00997.x"}],"container-title":["Urologia Internationalis"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/354879","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/354879","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T18:03:37Z","timestamp":1745431417000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000354879"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,5]]},"references-count":14,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,1]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,27]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000354879","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0042-1138","1423-0399"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0042-1138"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1423-0399"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,5]]}}}
