Reviewed data included prenatal management and clinical follow-up by a pediatric nephrologist and a pediatric urologist. Both intention-to-treat and per-protocol analyses were conducted. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The median follow-up was 3.6 years (0.5–7) for FC and 2.5 years (1.1–5.1) for VAS. There was no difference between FC and VAS in terms of survival (92 vs. 83%, <i>p</i> = 1), complication rate (74 vs. 92%, <i>p</i> = 0.88), or chronic kidney disease (58 vs. 50%, <i>p</i> = 1). The number of procedures was higher in the VAS group: 1.7 (1–3) versus 1.1 (1–2), <i>p</i> = 0.01. With a 30% rate of technical failure, FC added diagnostic value in 3 out of 21 cases. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> No difference was found between FC and VAS regarding survival, long-term kidney function, or urological outcome. Despite overly optimistic reports on FC, it lacks reproducibility due to posterior-urethra inadequate visualization and inappropriate instrumentation.
