Extra-corporeal shock wave lithotripsy.
Extra-corporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) has proved to be a revolutionary advance in the treatment of renal stone disease. It, itself, is non-invasive but may necessitate or be used as an adjunct to more invasive auxiliary procedures. The basic principles of lithotripsy, the clinical experience thus far and probable future applications are discussed.
متن کاملThe efficacy of tamsulosin therapy after extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy for ureteric calculi: A prospective randomised, controlled study
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether tamsulosin hydrochloride is effective as an adjunctive medical therapy to increase the effectiveness of extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for treating ureteric stones, and minimises the use of analgesic drugs after the procedure. PATIENTS AND METHODS To treat single ureteric stones of 5-15 mm in diameter, 130 patients were treated with ESWL. After trea...
متن کاملEfficacy of Shock Wave Lithotripsy in Lower Ureteric Calculus
Introduction: Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and ureteroscopy (URS) are effective treatments in the management of ureteric calculus. ESWL is noninvasive, associated with less morbidity than URS. Moreover, URS requires specialized training, requires more anesthesia, and more often requires ureteral stent placement. We have analyzed the efficacy of ESWL in the management of lower ur...
متن کاملStone clearance in lower pole nephrolithiasis after extra corporeal shock wave lithotripsy – the controversy continues
BACKGROUND To determine factors influencing the clearance of fragments after extra-corporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for lower pole calyceal (LPC) stones. METHODS In the period between July 1998 and Oct 2001, 100 patients with isolated lower polar calyceal calculi or= 14 years, were included in the study. Intravenous urograms (IVU) were reviewed to define t...
متن کاملComparative efficacy of tadalafil versus tamsulosin as the medical expulsive therapy in lower ureteric stone: a prospective randomized trial
INTRODUCTION In recent years, medical expulsive therapy has been used in the management of distal ureteric stones as a supplement to conservative treatment. Therefore, we conducted a prospective randomized study to evaluate the possible role of tadalafil individually in comparison with proven tamsulosin therapy in ureteric stone expulsion. The aim of this study is to compare the safety and effi...
متن کاملMedical expulsive therapy for distal ureteric stones: tamsulosin versus silodosin.
OBJECTIVES To compare the efficacy and safety of tamsulosin and silodosin in the context of medical expulsive therapy (MET) of distal ureteric stones. PATIENTS AND METHODS Observational data were collected retrospectively from patients who received silodosin (N = 50) or tamsulosin (N = 50) as MET from January 2012 to January 2013. Inclusion criteria were: patients aged ≥ 18 years with a singl...
