Abstract:
Serum creatine-kinase (CK) activity was monitored during ESWL in order to investigate muscular or even myocardial injury. Despite a significant increase at the sixth hour, the values observed remained in the normal range. The authors were therefore unable to conclude on any significant muscular damage.
