The electrohydraulic lithotrite generates high voltage discharges which, in a liquid medium, are converted to hydraulic shock waves capable of fracturing bladder stones. Electrohydraulic litholapaxy was successful in treating 28 of 30 patients with bladder stones. In nine patients other procedures were performed during the same anesthetic. In one patient, a calculus was removed from within a narrow-necked bladder diverticulum. Compared with conventional mechanical lithotripsy with serrated, jawed instruments, electrohydraulic lithotripsy is a safe, easy to learn and effective technique for treating bladder stones.
电液压碎石器产生高压放电，在液体介质中，高压放电会转化为能够击碎膀胱结石的液压冲击波。电液压碎石术成功治疗了30例膀胱结石患者中的28例。9例患者在同一次麻醉期间还进行了其他手术。1例患者的结石是从窄颈膀胱憩室内取出的。与使用带锯齿的钳口器械进行的传统机械碎石术相比，电液压碎石术是一种治疗膀胱结石的安全、易学且有效的技术。
