    Summary

    Electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL) is effective for treating bladder stones in 122 patients. Careful patient selection and adherence to guidelines are crucial for safe and successful EHL procedures, minimizing complications.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Minimally Invasive Surgery

    Context:

    • Electrohydraulic lithotripsy (EHL) is a technique used for stone fragmentation.
    • Bladder stones (vesicular calculi) can cause significant patient discomfort and complications.

    Purpose:

    • To report on the experiences with electrohydraulic lithotripsy in a cohort of 122 patients.
    • To outline the indications, contraindications, and operational guidelines for EHL.

    Summary:

    • The study details the application of EHL in 122 patients, emphasizing the importance of proper indications and contraindications for safe and effective stone removal.
    • Two cases of intraoperative complications highlight the necessity of adhering to procedural regulations.
    • The authors advocate for EHL as the preferred method for treating bladder calculi when indicated, having replaced mechanical lithotripsy in their department.

    Impact:

    • EHL, when appropriately applied, offers a safe and effective treatment for bladder stones.
    • The findings support the widespread adoption of EHL in urological practice for suitable cases.
    • This approach can lead to improved patient outcomes and reduced reliance on older, potentially more invasive techniques.
