Extracorporeal Shock-Wave Lithotripsy [PDF]

Journal of Urology, 1987
Analysis of our data clearly demonstrates that morbidity, secondary treatment, post-treatment manipulations, and failure of treatment increase as the stone size increases because of the increased stone fragment burden. Patients whose stone burden was less than 2 cm clearly had less morbidity.
