摘要: OBJECTIVE • To investigate the effect of different variables including body mass index (BMI) on therapy outcome in patients with upper urinary tract stones treated a third generation lithotripter, as BMI has been reported to be an independent predictor for stone-free status after extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) performed first or second lithotripters. PATIENTS AND METHODS In all, 172 kidney mean (range) size 9.2 (3.0-32.0) mm were included study. 91 (52.9%) ureteric stent situ. For SWL generation, electromagnetic lithotripter (Siemens Lithoskop™) was used. Stone-free reached, when no more treatable present (no stone < 3 mm). BMI, and localization, age, gender, treatment parameters situ evaluated their prognostic relevance success. RESULTS The all 27.8 (19.0-58.6) kg/m(2). Patients categorized into two groups: A) that free one treatment; B) residual stones. (sd) 27.4 (4.6) kg/m(2) 28.4 (6.1) A B, respectively. Univariate multivariate analysis freedom showed only (P 0.01) presence = variables. had significant influence 0.51). CONCLUSIONS Using not rate This might attributed greater penetration depth energy. Stone significance.
