Current Opinion in Urology, 1999
The indications for ureteroscopic lithotripsy have increased with endoscope miniaturization and powerful, precise endoscopic lithotrites like the holmium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser. Successful ureteropyeloscopic treatment with the currently available instrumentation and techniques is independent of the size, composition, and location of stones in ...

Urolithiasis, 2017
Since the introduction of ESWL, PNL and URS during the early 1980s the application rate of ESWL has declined while those of PNL and URS have increased. This is mainly due to the facts that instruments and techniques for Intracorporeal Lithotripsy (IL) have made a continuous progress.

The American Journal of Surgery, 1993
Extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL) has been applied to patients with gallstones since the mid-1980s. Lithotriptors differ by their means of shock-wave generation, the mechanisms by which they are coupled to the patient, and their imaging systems.

Current Opinion in Urology, 2002
All literature related to laser lithotripsy published within the past year was reviewed. Salient articles have been reviewed and grouped according to safety issues, efficacy, comparison studies, biliary applications or future directions.There is no evidence of renal deterioration after holmium:yttrium-aluminium-garnet lithotripsy.

Electrohydraulic Lithotripsy and Laser Lithotripsy
2017Mechanical lithotripsy is usually employed for the fragmentation of large common bile duct (CBD) stones. However, refractory CBD stones, stones larger than 2 cm in size, those firmly impacted, those located above a bile duct stricture, and those located in the intrahepatic bile duct, or cases of Mirizzi syndrome are difficult to treat.

[Extracorporeal lithotripsy, endocorporeal lithotripsy].
La Revue du praticien, 1992In the 1990's urologists are well equipped to treat urinary stones, using extracorporeal or intracorporeal lithotripsy, conventional surgery, ultrasounds, hydroelectric shocks, or lasers. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy has revolutionized the treatment of urinary lithiasis and gradually invades all the fields of this disease. 75% of patients with
