" 01/01/2022 - "To evaluate the efficacy of bladder ultrasound (US) in predicting the resolution of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) after subureteral endoscopic Deflux injection in low-grade vs high-grade VUR patients. " 06/01/2016 - "The objective of this study was to compare the clinical efficacy of two similar tissue bulking agents, Deflux and Vurdex, used for a treatment of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) in our institution. " 12/01/2013 - "This study aims to assess pediatric urology practice patterns and factors which influence the use of Deflux(®) in the management of vesicoureteral reflux among pediatric urologists. " 04/01/2019 - "As cystography demonstrated bilateral vesicoureteral reflux, we performed endoscopic intraureteral injection of Deflux[TM] and during the operation we confirmed influx of bloody urine from the right ureteral orifice but not from the left one. "
2.	Bites and Stings (Sting) 12/01/2016 - "HIT is superior to STING technique for resolution of VUR after Deflux injection. " 03/01/2012 - "Conventional sub-trigonal injection (STING) was performed with injection of Deflux underneath the bladder mucosa at the 6 o'clock position. " 03/01/2007 - "An Institutional Review Board approved the retrospective review of all cases of STING performed with Deflux at the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario, from April 2003 to October 2005. " 03/01/2007 - "We reviewed the outcome of the subtrigonal injection (STING) procedure with Deflux at a single pediatric hospital and included the rate of VUR resolution and complications. " 01/01/2016 - "The endoscopic STING procedure using Deflux is a common and minimal invasive treatment for vesicoureteral reflux. "
3.	Hydronephrosis 05/01/2013 - "Performing an initial endoscopic injection of Deflux in the management of concomitant VUR and UPJO provides promising results in terms of spontaneous resolution of obstruction at the UPJ level and complete resolution or decrease in hydronephrosis."
4.	Urinary Tract Infections (Urinary Tract Infection) 06/01/2007 - "The aim of this study was to review the experience of a single institution with the Deflux (Q-Med Scandinavia; Uppsala, Sweden) procedure and assess its effectiveness in reducing the incidence of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children with vesicoureteric reflux (VUR). " 05/01/2009 - "The analyzed data were: age, gender, grade, bilateral or unilateral presence of reflux, distribution to the sides of the body, urinary tract infections, associated anomalies and complications of VUR, treatment methods and the success rate of endoscopic correction with Deflux. " 07/01/2017 - "[Transurethral Injection Using Deflux for Vesicoureteral Reflux in Three Adult Women with Frequent Febrile Urinary Tract Infections]." 10/01/2008 - "We reviewed our experience with febrile urinary tract infections in children following initial successful treatment of vesicoureteral reflux with Deflux and identified factors predictive of post-Deflux urinary tract infections.
