Abstract

Piezo-electric shock wave lithotripsy was successfully performed in 20 patients out of 25 presenting with distal ureteral stones. Echographic adjustment of the stone remains the very most important point of the technique. The treatment is non invasive, doesn't require any in-hospital stay and displays good tolerance.
