[Scrotal haematoma as a sign of renal hematoma after ESWL].

We described the case of a patient who presented a large scrotal black discoloration 15 hours after successful extracorporeal lithotripsy of a proximal ureteral calculus. The patient did not present any other clinical symptoms as a sign of subcapsular haematoma.

[Clinical experience and results of ESWL treatment for 1.000 consecutive patients with the Siemens Lithostar Modularis].

Patients And Methods: We describe the outcome of the treatment of 1.000 consecutive patients treated since may 2000 to december 2003 with Siemens Lithostar Modularis to evaluate the efficacy of this new lithotripter

Results: 60.5% male and 39.

[Laparoscopic adrenalectomy in adrenal carcinoma].

There is general agreement on the suitability of the laparoscopic approach for benign adrenal lesions against open procedures because of the efficacy and less morbidity. For suspected adrenal malignancies laparoscopic use is controversial. We report our experience in 6 cases of laparoscopic adrenalectomy in patients with the suspicion of adrenal malignancy confined in the gland.

[Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy of urolithiasis in patients with urinary diversion].

We evaluate the efficacy of ESWL in the management of calculi in patients with urinary diversion. We treated 5 patients who suffered from urinary lithiasis after urinary diversion post cistectomy. We managed the patients with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy in monotherapy with a Siemens Lithostar Modularis device.
