Abstract:
Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is becoming the most common procedure for the treatment of renal and ureteral stones. The introduction of a new generator and a new hemi-ellipsoid for the Dornier HM-III lithotripter improves patient comfort and requires no general or peridural anesthesia, thus making it easier to perform this procedure on an outpatient basis.
