Abstract
A radiological study of the necropsy kidneys of 100 children was made. Compound or fixed papillae predominate in the upper group of calyces and to a lesser degree in the lower group, while simple papillae occurred in the middle group. Pressure studies showed that intrarenal reflux occurred in compound papillae at lower pressure than in simple papillae and that lower pressures were required to produce intrarenal reflux in the 1st yr of life.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
