COMPARISON OF THE SUCCESS OF EXTRACORPOREAL SHOCK WAVE LITHOTRIPSY (ESWL) WITH AND WITHOUT DJ STENTING IN PROXIMAL URETERIC STONE

Journal of University Medical & Dental College, 2020
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: There is disagreement in the use of ureteral double-J stent before the extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), although most of the urologists suggest using stent in shock wave lithotripsy technique for stones bigger than ...

Renal Adverse Effects of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy

Acta Clinica Croatica, 2021
Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy is not a novel therapeutic method in the treatment of urolithiasis. It uses shock waves (SW) created in the generator outside of the body that are then focused and directed on the calculus in the patient’s body.

Efficacy and Tolerability of Transoral Sialolithotomy in Non‐Palpable Submandibular Lithiasis

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 1, Page 218-225, January 2026.
Transoral sialolithotomy has long been considered inappropriate for non‐palpable submandibular stones. In this retrospective cohort of 457 patients, we compared outcomes between palpable and non‐palpable stones, showing that the technique allows successful removal in 87% of non‐palpable cases, with no associated complications.

Nanofluid‐Enhanced Laser Lithotripsy Using Conducting Polymer Nanoparticles

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 48, December 29, 2025.
Incorporating polymeric nanoparticles, PEDOT:PSS, with a high near‐infrared absorption coefficient into the fluid significantly enhances the dusting efficiency of Ho:YAG laser lithotripsy for kidney stone treatment. This approach, which leverages the control of light‐matter interactions, integrates seamlessly with the current laser lithotripsy workflow.

Comparative Analysis of Intravascular Lithotripsy With and Without Atherectomy in Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions Using OCT and OFDI

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 106, Issue 7, Page 3541-3550, December 1, 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) fractures calcified plaques and facilitates lesion expansion; however, unlike atherectomy devices, it does not reduce calcium volume. The therapeutic efficacy and safety of combining IVL with atherectomy remain unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate, through optical coherence tomography (OCT)
