Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for upper urinary tract stones using piezoelectric shock wave lithotripsy
Between August 1999 and July 2000, 123 cases of renal stones and 52 cases of ureteral stones in 116 males and 59 females were treated with the New Piezolith 2500. The average number of sessions required for renal and ureteral stones was 2.50 and 1.48, respectively. At 3 months postoperatively, stone...

| Zusammenfassung: | Between August 1999 and July 2000, 123 cases of renal stones and 52 cases of ureteral stones in 116 males and 59 females were treated with the New Piezolith 2500. The average number of sessions required for renal and ureteral stones was 2.50 and 1.48, respectively. At 3 months postoperatively, stone-free rates for renal and ureteral stones were 64.2% and 72.7%, respectively. Assessing residual stones less than 4 mm in diameter as an effective treatment outcome, the efficacy rates for renal and ureteral stones were 94.3% and 86.4%, respectively. Side effects were encountered in 5 cases (2.9%) of high fever and one case (0.57%) of renal subcapsular hematoma. New Piezolith 2500 is effective and safe for the treatment of upper urinary stones |
