Pancreatic and biliary calculi: percutaneous treatment with tunable dye laser lithotripsy

R K Feldman et al. Radiology. 1990 Mar.

Abstract

Percutaneous tunable dye laser lithotripsy was used in two patients to successfully fragment a 2-cm left hepatic duct calculus and a 5-mm main pancreatic duct calculus. Tunable dye laser lithotripsy may prove to be a more effective alternative to mechanical lithotripsy.
