title: [Extracorporeal lithotripsy in the treatment of biliary calculi].
abstract: The authors present their experience from February 1988 with biliary lithotripsy in 125 patients. They review the protocol inclusion criteria and the various forms of complementary medical treatment. From this group, 30% of the patients underwent cholecystectomy, 45% received medical treatment and only 25% did not eventually require complementary medical therapy.
