Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL)
- Patient had ureter stone presenting with flank discomfort and blood in urine.
We hope for stone-free result 😊
- a process that uses acoustic or high intensity sound waves (called shock waves) to break stones in the kidney, ureter and urinary bladder. It is used for removing kidney stones without surgery
- Contrast dye was injected to visualize the urine flow.
- After few shocks, we noted lightening of Ureter stone and smooth passage of urine.
We hope for stone-free result 😊
Note: NOT FOR GALLBLADDER STONE 😊
