Painless lithotripsy: experience with 100 patients.

T Philp1, M J Kellett, H N Whitfield, J E Wickham.   

Abstract

123 patients underwent 320 extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) sessions with the Wolf 'Piezolith 2200' lithotripter. The overall success rate, judged by adequate stone fragmentation into particles of 2 mm or less as seen on X-ray, was 92%. Few complications occurred. The lithotripter was easy to operate, and treatment was painless.
