title: [Therapeutic strategy in urinary calculi].
abstract: Most of the urinary stones are treated with ESWL. Endoscopic techniques are more frequently used as alternatives. Open surgery is rarely used. Laparoscopy is in the phase of evaluation and seems to be promising for some indications. This paper summarises the present strategy of urinary stones treatment.
