Emerging Technologies in Ultrasonic and Pneumatic Lithotripsy
Urologic Clinics of North America, 2019Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is the treatment of choice for large renal stones. Larger, straight access tracts allow for use of rigid pneumatic and ultrasonic lithotripsy devices. Through advanced technologies, more efficient fragmentation has become possible, allowing for a variety of treatment options depending on stone location, size, and ...

URERTEROSCOPIC LASER LITHOTRIPSY IS BETTER THAN PNEUMATIC LITHOTRIPSY FOR URETRIC STONES
GLOBAL JOURNAL FOR RESEARCH ANALYSIS, 2023Background: Among various intra-corporeal lithotripters, pneumatic lithotripter has become the widely used tool for the treatment of urinary stones. Recently the holmium: YAG laser has been used with a wide range of potential urological applications, including intra-corporeal lithotripsy of urinary calculi. Aims and objective: Compare the effectiveness
