  • Title: Genitourinary involvement in chronic granulomatous disease of childhood.
    Author: Forbes GS, Hartman GW, Burke EC, Segura JW.
    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 1976 Oct; 127(4):683-6. PubMed ID: 970547.
    Abstract:
    A second case of symptomatic renal involvement of chronic granulomatous disease of childhood is reported, and all previous cases of documented genitourinary lesions in this disease are reviewed. Although frequent infections of other organ systems are a well recognized part of chronic granulomatous disease, involvement of the urinary tract has been rarely reported. The nature of the few cases described suggests that extensive insidious destruction occurs before urinary tract involvement is clinically suspected.
