title: [The EDAP LT and the M.P.L. 9000. Results of the treatment of reno-ureteral lithiasis].
abstract: The advantages and disadvantages of piezoelectric lithotripsy are discussed with specific analysis of the EDAP LT 01. A description of the EDAP LT 01 is included. Installation, accommodation, and maintenance features are discussed. The Dornier M.P.L. 9000 represents a third-generation lithotripter for both kidney and gallbladder stones with an ultrasound localization system tubules shock-wave coupling. The use of TH M.P.L. 9000 was limited by ultrasound-guided localization of kidney stones, upper ureteral calculi causing obstruction, and intramural lower ureteral stones.
