Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy in a renal transplant patient.
We report a case of nephrolithiasis in a transplanted kidney that was treated successfully with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. The patient experienced transient partial obstruction after lithotripsy and, thus, intense monitoring of the transplant patient is necessary.
