"The objective of this study was to analyse the upper urinary tract (UT) function in a group of consecutive multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. 92 MS patients were included in the study. The average Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score in our group was 4.29. Functional examination of the kidneys using assessment of creatinine clearance and morphological examination of the kidneys using ultrasound was performed in all patients. The average serum creatinine clearance in our group was 132.84 ml/min/1.73 m2 (46.8\u2013510). Abnormal ultrasound findings were recorded in five patients (5.4%). The creatinine clearance was correlated with the clinical subtype of MS, the severity expressed by EDSS, the urodynamic parameters, the duration of the disease, the duration of the symptoms of lower UT and the EDSS score. We did not find a statistically significant correlation for any of these parameters. Our results suggest that impairment of the upper UT function is exceptional in MS patients"@en . "Krhut, J." . .
