Svensk definition
Förstörelse av stenar i njure, urinledare, urinblåsa eller gallblåsa med fysisk kraft, inklusive krossning med litotriptorkateter. Riktat perkutant ultraljud och riktad hydraulisk chockvåg kan användas utan kirurgiska ingrepp. Till litotripsi hör inte upplösning av stenar med syror eller litolys. En speciell form av litotripsi är laserlitotripsi.
Engelsk definition
The destruction of a calculus of the kidney, ureter, bladder, or gallbladder by physical forces, including crushing with a lithotriptor through a catheter. Focused percutaneous ultrasound and focused hydraulic shock waves may be used without surgery. Lithotripsy does not include the dissolving of stones by acids or litholysis. Lithotripsy by laser is LITHOTRIPSY, LASER.
