Abstract
We investigated the effect of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) on the urinary excretion of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosamidase (NAG) activities. No significant increases in NAG excretion were recognized between, before and after ESWL. However, there were significant increases in patients with renal calculi who received over 1,000 shock waves. Therefore, we should not neglect renal impairments which could be caused by extracorporeal shock wave exposure.Entities:
