Abstract

ESWL is an effective treatment for renal and ureteral calculi with few serious side effects. Most complications are related to an obstruction from stone fragments lodged within the ureter with an accompanying colic and/or infection and subcapsular or perirenal hematoma. Here we report a patient with a protein S deficiency sustaining a deep vein thrombosis following an ESWL for a mid ureter stone.
