Abstract:
Since the establishment of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for the treatment of upper urinary tract calculi, further potential applications have been explored. We report the successful use of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for the treatment of obstructive calculi on staples within the afferent nipple of a Kock pouch ureteroileal urinary diversion.
