RESUMO
The aim of this study was to analyse, basing on clinical observation, the reasons of urinary tract infection in children. The study included 1016 children with urinary tract infection /832 girls and 184 boys/ in the age between 2 weeks and 18 years old hospitalised in our Department in the period 1994-2000. The most common reasons of urinary tract infections were urinary tract abnormalities and the first among them was vesicoureteral reflux. In bacterial etiology Escherichia coli was the most common bacterial strain.

The aim of this study was to assess, on the basing on clinical observation, the causes of erythrocyturia in children. The study include 438 children (214 girls and 224 boys) between 6 month and 17-teen years old with erythrocyturia, treated in Pediatric Nephrology Department from September 1992 till October 1999. The most common was the group of children with urolithiasis--162 (36.99%) and preurolithiasis state--126 (28.77%). In 153 cases urolithiasis was the only reason of erythrocyturia and in 9 children near urolithiasis the other reason (vesicouretheral reflux, urinary tract infection, glomerulitis, polycystic kidney) has been found. In 103 children the preulithiasis state was the only cause of erythrocyturia, in 23 children it was coexisted with others (vesicouretheral reflux, urinary tract infection, glomerulitis). As the more rare common causes were established vesicouretheral reflux, urinary tract infection, glomerulonephritis, in 36 children (8%) we did not find the reason of erythrocyturia. Variety of the reasons makes differential diagnostics of erythrocyturia complicated and needs experience and specialistic diagnostic investigation.

Recurrent urinary tract infections in children with vesico-ureteral reflux are the one of risk factors in the process of reflux nephropathy. One of markers of early kidney parenchyma damage is beta 2-microglobulin. The aim of the study was to evaluate the value of beta 2-microglobulin excretion in urine and its serum levels in children with vesico-ureteral reflux and recurrent urinary tract infections. It was found that abnormal urinary excretion of beta 2-microglobulin and its serum levels of proceeded post-inflammatory changes in kidney parenchyma observed in imaging examinations of urinary tract and impared parameters of renal function in biochemical analyses.
