Extracorporeal shockwave therapy for peyronie disease.
While surgery is the mainstay of therapy for Peyronie disease requiring correction of angulation, interest has grown in the application of extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) as a minimally invasive approach. This article reviews the current literature reporting the use of ESWT for Peyronie disease.
متن کاملExtracorporeal shockwave therapy in musculoskeletal disorders
The sources of shockwave generation include electrohydraulic, electromagnetic and piezoelectric principles. Electrohydraulic shockwaves are high-energy acoustic waves generated under water explosion with high voltage electrode. Shockwave in urology (lithotripsy) is primarily used to disintegrate urolithiasis, whereas shockwave in orthopedics (orthotripsy) is not used to disintegrate tissues, ra...

متن کاملEffect of Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy Versus Stretching in the Treatment of Athletes With Chronic Plantar Fasciitis
Purpose: Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is a relatively new method in the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders such as plantar fasciitis. This study aimed to compare two methods of treatment with extracorporeal shockwave and stretching in athletes with chronic plantar fasciitis. Methods: The study was a randomized clinical trial. A total of 30 male athletes with chronic plantar fasc...
