The Acoustics of Shock Wave Lithotripsy
The shock waves employed in lithotripsy are high amplitude acoustics waves. As they propagate through the body to the stone that are affected by coupling to the body and the presence of tissue through which they must pass. Once the shock wave arrives at the stone there is a complex transmission of energy into the stone as the shock wave can couple into

ABSTRACT Introduction Surgical clips used in laparoscopic and robot‐assisted surgeries can occasionally migrate into the upper urinary tract, serving as nidi for stone formation. We report a case of a surgical clip‐induced renal stone successfully treated with ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URSL) following laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN).
