ESWL OPD - Common Diagnoses

An ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) OPD functions in three phases: pre-procedure assessment (patient and stone selection), active ESWL treatment sessions, and post-procedure follow-up. The diagnoses below cover all three phases.

1. Primary Indications for ESWL - Calculi by Location

Diagnosis	Stone Size / Notes
Renal pelvis calculus	Best ESWL candidate; 5-20 mm; stone-free rates highest
Upper pole renal calculus	Good drainage with ESWL; <20 mm preferred
Middle pole renal calculus	Acceptable; stone-free rates moderate
Lower pole renal calculus	Poorer stone-free rate due to dependent drainage; <10 mm preferred
Upper ureteric calculus	ESWL effective; larger stones may need URS
Mid ureteric calculus	Overlies bony pelvis; fluoroscopic targeting may be difficult
Lower / distal ureteric calculus	URS often preferred; ESWL possible if URS unavailable
Multiple small renal calculi	Metabolic stone disease; ESWL for symptomatic stones

2. Stone Composition & Metabolic Diagnoses (Driving Recurrence)

Diagnosis	Notes
Calcium oxalate monohydrate (whewellite)	Most common; dense on CT; moderately amenable to ESWL
Calcium oxalate dihydrate (weddellite)	Softer; excellent ESWL response
Calcium phosphate (hydroxyapatite / brushite)	Associated with RTA, hyperparathyroidism
Uric acid calculus	Radiolucent; medical dissolution with urine alkalinization (potassium citrate) preferred; ESWL if fails
Struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate / infection stone)	UTI-related; partial/full staghorn; PCNL preferred; ESWL adjunct only
Cystine calculus	Genetic; very hard; poor ESWL response; URS/PCNL preferred
Hyperoxaluria (primary / secondary)	Metabolic workup; recurrent calcium oxalate stones
Hypercalciuria (absorptive / resorptive / renal)	Thiazide diuretics; dietary modification
Hyperuricosuria	Low-purine diet, allopurinol
Hypocitraturia	Potassium citrate supplementation
Hyperparathyroidism (primary)	Elevated Ca²⁺, PTH; calcium phosphate stones; parathyroidectomy
Renal tubular acidosis (Type I - distal RTA)	Alkaline urine; calcium phosphate / struvite stones
Medullary sponge kidney	Bilateral nephrocalcinosis; recurrent stones
Cystinuria	Autosomal recessive; dibasic amino acid transport defect

3. Pre-ESWL Assessment Diagnoses / Conditions

These are evaluated at OPD before scheduling ESWL:

Condition	Relevance
Obstructive uropathy / hydronephrosis	Obstruction must be relieved (DJ stent / nephrostomy) before ESWL
Pelvi-ureteric junction (PUJ) obstruction with stone	Stone may not pass post-fragmentation; stenting required
Urinary tract infection (UTI)	Must be treated before ESWL; infected obstructed system = emergency
Coagulopathy / anticoagulant use	Warfarin, DOACs must be withheld; bleeding risk with ESWL
Solitary kidney with calculus	ESWL possible with caution; DJ stent recommended prior
Horseshoe kidney with calculus	Impaired drainage; PCNL often preferred
Transplant kidney with calculus	ESWL feasible; careful positioning required
Pregnancy	Absolute contraindication to ESWL
Pacemaker / implantable defibrillator (ICD)	Relative contraindication; cardiac team evaluation needed
Aortic / renal artery aneurysm	Contraindication; risk of rupture from shock waves
Morbid obesity	Stone targeting difficult; skin-to-stone distance >10 cm reduces efficacy
Skeletal deformity / scoliosis	Positioning and targeting challenges
Uncontrolled hypertension	Must be optimized pre-procedure
Renal insufficiency (CKD)	ESWL feasible; contrast-free targeting; nephroprotection

4. Post-ESWL Follow-up Diagnoses & Complications

Diagnosis	Notes
Residual stone fragments (post-ESWL)	Most common; re-session or surveillance depending on size
Steinstrasse ("stone street")	Column of fragments obstructing ureter; may need URS or DJ stent
Ureteric colic post-ESWL	Passage of fragments; managed with alpha-blockers (tamsulosin) + analgesia
Hematuria post-ESWL	Expected for 24-48 hours; persistent hematuria warrants imaging
Renal hematoma / subcapsular hematoma	Rare; conservative management; imaging follow-up
Perinephric hematoma	Significant bleeding; observation ± intervention
Urosepsis / febrile UTI post-ESWL	Infection in obstructed fragmented system; IV antibiotics, decompression
Urinary obstruction (post-ESWL)	From large fragment impaction; DJ stent or URS
Failed ESWL / stone-resistant	Cystine, brushite, large stones; redirect to URS or PCNL
DJ stent-related symptoms	Urgency, frequency, flank pain, hematuria from indwelling stent
Incomplete stone clearance requiring re-ESWL	Multiple sessions planned at OPD

5. Conditions Redirected from ESWL OPD to Other Procedures

Patients assessed in ESWL OPD but redirected based on stone characteristics:

Diagnosis	Preferred Procedure
Staghorn / partial staghorn calculus	PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy)
Lower pole stone >15 mm	PCNL or URS preferred
Hard cystine / brushite stone	URS with laser (Holmium)
Ureteric stone with failed ESWL	Ureteroscopy (URS) + laser lithotripsy
Stone with distal ureteric stricture	URS + stricture management
Stone in calyceal diverticulum	PCNL or laparoscopic surgery
Renal stone in PUJ obstruction (anatomical)	Pyeloplasty + stone clearance
Bladder calculus	Cystolithotripsy / TURBT approach

6. Metabolic Follow-up & Stone Prevention OPD

Diagnosis / Condition	Management
Recurrent calcium oxalate stone disease	24-hr urine metabolic workup, dietary counseling, thiazides
Recurrent uric acid stones	Urine alkalinization (target pH 6.5-7), allopurinol
Idiopathic hypercalciuria	Low sodium diet, thiazide diuretics, adequate hydration
Hypocitraturia	Potassium citrate; lemonade therapy
Post-bariatric surgery hyperoxaluria	Calcium with meals, low-oxalate diet
Recurrent UTI-associated struvite	Long-term antibiotics, urea-splitting organism eradication
Gout with uric acid stones	Allopurinol, dietary purine restriction
Nephrocalcinosis (medullary)	Surveillance imaging, metabolic correction

7. Key ESWL Selection Criteria Summary (OPD Decision Making)

Factor	Favors ESWL	Favors Alternative (URS/PCNL)
Stone size	5-20 mm	>20 mm
Stone density (HU)	<970 HU on NCCT	>970 HU (hard stone)
Skin-to-stone distance	<10 cm	>10 cm (obesity)
Stone composition	CaOx dihydrate, uric acid	Cystine, brushite
Location	Renal pelvis, upper ureter	Lower pole, distal ureter
Obstruction distal to stone	Absent	Present (stent first)
Anatomy	Normal	Horseshoe kidney, calyceal diverticulum
