    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Nephrology
    • Minimally Invasive Surgery

    Context:

    • Extracorporeal lithotripsy (EL) is a key treatment for kidney stones.
    • Understanding its current applications and limitations is crucial for effective patient management.
    • A large case series (2150 cases) combined with literature review provides a comprehensive overview.

    Purpose:

    • To provide a detailed review of the current status of extracorporeal lithotripsy (EL).
    • To outline indications, contraindications, and potential complications associated with EL.
    • To explore specialized applications of EL in pediatric cases and patients with anomalous or single kidneys.

    Summary:

    • The review covers the use of EL for single, multiple, and coral kidney concrements.
    • It analyzes the risks and benefits based on extensive clinical experience and existing literature.
    • Pediatric applications and use in complex renal anatomies are specifically addressed.

    Impact:

    • Informs urologists and nephrologists on optimal use of EL for kidney stones.
    • Highlights areas for improvement and future research in stone management.
    • Contributes to evidence-based practice for minimally invasive urological procedures.
