Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy to distal ureteric stones: the transgluteal approach significantly increases stone-free rates [PDF]

, 2013
What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? Shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) can be used to treat stones at any position within the ureter, as long as the stone is radio-opaque and there is a path for the shockwave to reach the stone.

Longer‐term effects of intraoperative cone‐beam computed tomography in percutaneous nephrolithotomy: 18‐month retrospective randomised controlled trial analysis

BJU International, Volume 136, Issue 5, Page 848-857, November 2025.
Objectives To assess the longer‐term impact of intraoperative cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) on stone‐related morbidity after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), since intraoperative CBCT allows for the detection and removal of residual fragments during the same procedure, improving stone clearance and thereby potentially diminishing stone ...

Comparing laser vs mechanical lithotripsy in suction mini‐PCNL for kidney stone disease: A prospective multicentre study by the endourology section of EAU

BJUI Compass, Volume 6, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Objectives To compare perioperative outcomes, complications and stone‐free rates (SFRs) between laser and non‐laser lithotripsy in suction‐assisted mini‐PCNL (SM‐PCNL). Subjects and Methods This prospective multicentre study enrolled adults with normal kidneys undergoing SM‐PCNL (14–22 Fr) across 30 international centres (March–November 2024).

Long‐Term Complications of Neglected Double‐J Stent With Renal and Bladder Stone Formation: A Case Report From Sudan

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Double‐J (DJ) stents are commonly used to maintain ureteral patency after procedures like ureteral stone removal. Ideally, they should be replaced or removed within 6 to 12 weeks to avoid complications such as encrustation and stone formation. However, prolonged retention can lead to severe outcomes. This case report discusses a patient with a

Is stone clearance after shockwave lithotripsy in patients with solitary upper-caliceal stone influenced by anatomic differences in the pelvicaliceal system? [PDF]

, 2007
Purpose: We investigated the effect of pelvicaliceal differences on stone clearance after extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) in patients with solitary upper-caliceal ...

Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy of Primary Intrahepatic Stones

The Korean Journal of Internal Medicine, 1992
Extracorporeal shockwave lithothripsy (ESWL) was performed in intrahepatic stone patients (n = 18) by Dornier MPL 9,000 with ultrasound guidance. The patients had T-tube (n = 9) or percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage tube (n = 9). Average treatment session was four and shock-wave numbers were in the range of 3,064 to 12,000 (average 6,288 shocks)
