Abstract

Treatment of human calculi by extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy(ESWL) was introduced for kidney stones in 1980. This technology was then applied to the treatment of bile duct stones and pancreatic stones. Some reports have also shown that disintegration of pancreatic stones by extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy is possible with successful subsequent endoscopic extraction of the fragments at home ana abroad. We tried removal of pancreatic calcification stones by endoscopic procedures, but could't be removed because the basket got entagled in the endoscopy. We report one case of this pancreatic calcification stones ; the stones were successfully fragmented and completely removal by extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy.
