Abstract:
We report on the use of a new compact, inexpensive, portable shock wave lithotriptor. To date 40 treatments on 37 patients with different calculi in the upper urinary tract have been performed at our institution with excellent results and no complications. More patients currently are being treated with this machine at additional centers with equally good results.
