Abstract
The relationship between hair/eye color and primary vesicoureteral reflux was analyzed in more than 900 children. Children with blonde hair/blue eyes didnot show an increased prevalance of reflux not did any other hair/eye combination. With the possible exception of rufous coloring, the color of the hair and eyes are poor predictors of the competence of the ureteral orifice.Keywords
