[Value of the ultrasonic method of examining children under 1 year of age with pyelonephritis].

The paper treats the experience gained with the use of ultrasonography for investigation of the urinogenous organs in pyelonephritis children of the first year of life. The clinicolaboratory parameters as well as the data of the instrumental research methods including the roentgenourologic and echographic data were analyzed. This made it possible to define the importance of ultrasonography in these patients' examination and the examination routine. It is concluded that ultrasonography of the urinogenous organs in pyelonephritis children of the first year of life in one of the principal research methods, which should be performed before the use of other instrumental methods. Based on the echographic appearance approximately 1/3 of the children with pyelonephritis were suspected to have congenital developmental diseases of the urinogenous organs, whose nature was unraveled and specified by excretory urography.
