Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy in the Pediatric Population* [PDF]

Journal of Endourology, 1999
Shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) is being used increasingly as a therapeutic modality for childhood urolithiasis. We reported our experience and results of SWL in the pediatric population.The 59 renal units (RU) of 54 patients were retrospectively reviewed. The mean patient age was 10+/-3.5 years. All patients were treated with the Lithostar lithotripter in

Short-Term Bioeffects of Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy [PDF]

Journal of Endourology, 1994
Safety guidelines for shockwave delivery during extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) are not yet clear. Renal functions were assessed by using urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alanine aminotransferase (ALT; EC.2.6.1.2), aspartate aminotransferase (AST; EC. 2.6.1.1), and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) as

Acupuncture for Pain in Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy [PDF]

Journal of Endourology, 2004
In most cases, analgesia is required for extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) treatment. Commonly, a combination of a sedative and a synthetic opioid is used, with a wide range of undesirable side effects. To provide an alternative analgesic especially for outpatients, we performed a prospective trial investigating the usefulness of acupuncture.A

Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy in Pediatrics

Journal of Endourology, 2008
Since its introduction in 1980, extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) has become the first therapeutic option in most cases of upper-tract urolithiasis, and the technique has been used for pediatric renal stones since the first report of success in 1986. Lithotripter effectiveness depends on the power expressed at the focal point.
