How to treat vesicoureteral reflux in a 6-year-old girl

Patient's question:

The girl is 6 years old. She was diagnosed with a slow-reacting streptococcal infection and vesicoureteral reflux at Xi'an Children's Hospital. Her temperature is often 37-37.5 degrees. In September 12, she had a cough, and in December, she was hospitalized for pneumonia and bronchitis. She received 10 days of ceftriaxone and ribavirin. After discharge, she still had a cough, and her temperature sometimes reached 37.5 degrees.

Doctor's answer:

The situation you described may require hospital treatment for tubal obstruction, which can be addressed through hysteroscopic COOK catheter recanalization or partial tubal resection and anastomosis. Hysteroscopic catheter recanalization involves inserting a COOK catheter into the interstitial part of the fallopian tube under hysteroscopy to perform tubal irrigation. The recanalization of the fallopian tube's interstitial and isthmus segments is achieved through the separation, dilation effect of the catheter sheath, and the impact of the liquid.
