Abstract

Introduction: Urinary  tract  infection (UTI) is  one  of the  most  common  causes of  chronic  renal  failure  of  children. Therefore  diagnosis  of  predisposing  factors  have  an  important  role to  prevent  renal  damage. This Study was performed to investigate the association between idiopathic hypercalciuria and urinary tract infection in children 1-14 years of age admitted to Amiralmomenin hospital of Semnan (Iran). Materials and Methods: This was a case-control study in which 75 children with   UTI (without renal stone  and  urinary  tract  malformation) and  a control  group  of  75  children without UTI were  investigated. We measured random urine calcium to creatinine ratio in these children. In order to ruled out of secondary hypercalciuria, serum calcium, phosphor alkalene phosphatase, venous blood gases also were measured. Results: 67 out of 150 patients (89.3%) were females and the rest were males. The mean (± SD) age of children with UTI were 3.83 ± 2.78 years and in control group were 3.88 ± 2.88  years which the difference was not significant (p = 0.907). Idiopathic hypercalciuria in 40% (n = 30) of children with UTI and 13.3% (n = 10) of children without UTI was found (P
