Sumario:This is a study of the recurrenceof urinary tract infections during August 1999 in the Service of Nefrology of the Instituto de Salud del Niño (ISN). In tries to determine the caracteristic related with recurrence such as associated factors, number of recurrences, etarian groups, causal agents and treatment chosen. There were reviewed the clinical records of 50 children from 1 to 13 years old assisted in external consultories od the mentioned service during the month of August 1999 who fulfill the inclusion criteries. Results confirm that females are more implicated than males in a ratio of 5 to 1, preodminantly in children from 1 to 6 years old, being the most important associated factor identified. Moreover, the most frequent etiological agent was the E. Coli, remarquing the importance of cultures to initiate an adequate therapy. Finally, the most used therapy in the ISN was the Nitrofurantoin.
