Extra corporeal shockwave lithotripsy resulting in skin burns – a report of two cases

Extra corporeal shockwave lithotripsy resulting in skin burns – a report of two cases

Severe skin injury after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is rare. We describe two patients who suffered full thickness skin burns following ESWL for renal calculi. One patient was treated conservatively and the other underwent debridement with skin grafting. We speculate...
