What causes vesicoureteral reflux to occur in children?

◦ Children do not ask for help in urinating in a timely manner, and urine is forced up into the ureters.
◦ The submucosal segment of a child’s ureter is short, making the antireflux mechanism inefficient.
◦ The trigone lying between the opening to the ureters and the urethra is underdeveloped in children.
◦ As the bladder fills in infants and children, it pulls the smooth lining of the transitional epithelium away from the ureters, making the reflux valves ineffective.
