Stone depth has a significant influence on treatment outcome after piezoelectric SWL for both renal and ureteral calculi. We recommend particular attention be given to corpulent patients presenting with ureteral stones.
A renal oncocytoma is a benign and usually solitary lesion. We present a new case of diffuse oncocytomatosis in one kidney after previous contralateral surgery for an isolated oncocytoma. This very unusual situation must be kept in mind in cases of multifocal oncocytomas, as a recurrence will generally occur after partial surgery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
