Özet

Objective: Early diagnosis and treatment of urinary tract infections (UTI) in children has clinical importance since the signs and symptoms can be nonspecific. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between bladder debris which is commonly seen at the process of ultrasonography (USG) and positive urine culture in pediatric patients that will alert the clinicians in the diagnosis of UTI when the signs and symptoms are nonspecific.
