Summary:We report a case of severe(gradeV) unilateral vesicoureteral reflux(VUR) without any renal damage in a 6-month-old boy through the early sil)ling screening test for VUR, whose old brother had reflux nephropathy. The early detection of VUR aroused us to take special precautions to prevent urinary tract infection in this patient. We believe that this approach was helpful to reduce the risk of renal damage in this patient and are reporting the case with a brief review of related literatures. It is our firm suggestion that screening for vesicoureteral reflux should be carried out in every child who has siblings with refluf nephrouathy. 저자들은 역류성 신질환 남아의 생후 6개월된 남동생을 대상으로 시행한 조기 형제선별검사에서 신손상을 보이지 않는 5단계의 좌측 방광요관역류를 발견할 수 있었다. 이후 요로감염의 발생을 방지하고자 하였으며, 이를 통하여 신손상발생의 위험을 줄일 수 있었기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다. 또한 역류성 신질환 환아의 형제자매에서 방광요관역류 여부에 대한 형제선별검사를 적극적으로 시행할 것을 제안하는 바이다.
