There is continuing debate about the optimum management of patients with calculi in caliceal diverticula. Extracorporeal piezoelectric lithotripsy (EPL) has the advantage of being non-invasive, whereas endourological management can treat the underlying anatomical problem. A total of 20 patients with calculi in caliceal diverticula were treated with EPL. Twelve of 16 patients with symptoms (75%) were rendered symptom-free but only 5 (25%) became stone-free. This information should be of value in counselling patients before selecting the appropriate treatment.
关于肾盏憩室结石患者的最佳治疗方法，目前仍存在争议。体外压电碎石术（EPL）具有无创的优点，而腔内泌尿外科治疗可以解决潜在的解剖学问题。共有20例肾盏憩室结石患者接受了EPL治疗。16例有症状的患者中，12例（75%）症状消失，但只有5例（25%）结石清除。这些信息在为患者选择合适的治疗方法前进行咨询时应具有参考价值。
