CLINICAL EXPERIENCE WITH TMC-IA LITHOTRIPTER

Within a span of six months time, out of 73 cases we have done, 43 are Renal-stones, 9 upper Ureteric, 6 middle-Ureteral and 15 lower Ureteric stones. The sizes of the stones we have treated range from 0.7cm to 4.5cm.The strength of shock-waves used varies from 10 KV to 17 KV. Numbers of shock-waves were from 600 to 3000 shocks per sitting. It shows that we have been able to treat 6 stones in only 600 to 1000 shocks. These stones were 0.7cm to 1.2 cm in size. Stenting requirement was surprisingly low (3 cases only). Stents were used in the stones bigger than 3cm. In only one case we were not able to treat because of excessive obesity. She had a stone in the lower Ureter and it was not possible to bring that stone to F2.

Only 3 patients required more than 4 sittings (5 to 8) and all of them had stones bigger than 2.5cm. There has been no case of stone impaction in Ureter (Steinstrasse). This is probably because of very small fragmentation size we are able to achieve with this machine as this starts giving shock-waves from 7 KV which determines the fragment size.

ADVANTAGES WITH VULCAN Torro COMPARED WITH OTHER EHL MACHINES AVAILABLE-

Very compact system and requires small floor area.

Works with C-arm as well as with ultrasound

C-arm placement is perpendicular so locating a stone becomes very simple as spine does not overlap with stone image as occurs with other machines currently available.

Low cost of consumables

Excellent after sales services provided by Stone Medical International

Dr. S. Sidhu (Director International sales) a giant in the field of Lithotripsy has been a great help in treating difficult cases as he had always come forward with solutions in difficult cases. Dr. S. Sidhu and his teams association along with his machine have been instrumental in my success in such a small time.
