Abstract:
This paper presents the components and the principles of an internal electrohydraulic lithotripter.Cooperating with the cystoscope,the lithotripter introduces the high-pressure discharge pulse into the bladder through the microelectrode.Then the little,easily-moved stone is targeted,and the re-discharge of the lithotripter 5mm away from the stone results in the shock wave to perform lithotritization.
