| Core Tip |
This was a two-center study on 531 children with suspected or proven vesicoureteral reflux undergoing off-label voiding urosonography using sulfur hexafluoride (SH). We investigated the SH risk profile with intravesical administration. No acute allergic adverse event was observed with the off-label-use of SH for radiation free assessment of vesicoureteral reflux. Only a few subacute, minor-to-moderate adverse events were reported (4.1%). Hints of self-limited minor allergic reaction related to intravesical administration of sulfur hexafluoride were reported in less than 1%. This underlines the demand for an approval of SH in pediatric applications. |
