Congenital sacral anomalies.

A review of seventy-one children with sacral anomalies is presented. The aetiology is discussed and a classification of sacral anomalies is suggested, with three groups of patients: agenetic, dysgenetic and dysraphic. The clinical presentation of each group is discussed and the high incidence of congenital visceral and skeletal abnormalities is indicated in the dysgenetic group. The need for constant urological assessment is emphasised, particularly in the agenetic and dysraphic children.

Absence of vesico-ureteral reflux in children with ureteral jets.

The jet phenomenon is a normal finding in excretory urography. The presence of such a jet is a good sign that vesico-ureteral reflux is not present. Of 19 ureters with a jet sign, only one had minimal transient ureteral reflux, while in 39 ureters without a jet sign 15 had reflux.
