Kolonperforation nach extrakorporaler Stoßwellenlithotripsie

Abstract: ESWL is considered a safe method to treat urinary lithiasis with a low complication rate. Nevertheless serious potentially life-threatening pararenal complications can occur. Due to the increasing number of outpatient procedures, a careful clinical and ultrasound monitoring of the patient with early recognition and interdisciplinary management of complications is necessary after each ESWL therapy.

“…Injuries to surrounding organs are also very rare, but stray reports of the injury to the lungs, liver [15], pancreas [17], descending colon [18] and intestine [19], even dissection of abdominal aorta [20] were presented. Renal failure [21] needing dialysis has been reported after bilateral ESWL, but uncontrolled infection may impede the effect of dialysis, as in our case 1.…”

“…4 Serious complications are rare but do occur with adjacent organ injury, like colonic perforation, pancreatitis, splenic rupture. 5,6,7 Spontaneous ureteral rupture is even rarer especially after ESWL. 3 Spontaneous ureteral rupture is by definition an extravasation of urine from the ureter without previous surgery, ureteric manipulation and external trauma of the ureter.…”
