Abstract
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.
