title: Computerized tomographic appearance of renal cysts after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.
abstract: We identified cysts in five kidneys of four patients who had lithotripsy. Three of these kidneys were evaluated with CT scans the day before and the day after lithotripsy and showed no change. The other two kidneys were studied by CT only after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy; hemorrhage was shown in one and cyst wall thickening in the other.
