Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is a standard treatment for nephrolithiasis. It is widely employed due to its relative safety profile when compared with other treatment options. Recognised complications include localised pain at site, steinstrasse, perinephric haematoma and ureteric obstruction. This report presents a rare non-documented complication of ESWL, pseudoaneurysm of the arc of Buhler, a branch artery of the superior mesenteric artery.
体外冲击波碎石术(ESWL)是治疗肾结石的标准方法。与其他治疗方法相比,它具有相对安全的特点,因此被广泛应用。公认的并发症包括局部疼痛、石街形成、肾周血肿和输尿管梗阻。本报告介绍了 ESWL 的一种罕见且未被记录的并发症,即肠系膜上动脉的分支——Buhler 弓的假性动脉瘤。
