Abstract

Urinary calculus recidives are frequents, needing shock waves multiple applications for its treatment. This research studies acute morphological changes that occur in the kidneys of rats subjected to electro-hydraulic shock waves reapplication. The experiment used 48 rats, divided in four groups of 12. The first group received two 2,000 shock waves applications with 14 kV intensity and a fourteen-day interval between the applications. The third group received only one 2,000 shock waves application of the same intensity. The second and fourth groups were control groups. The kidneys were examined 72 hours after the application, observing: subcapsular, interstitial and glomerular hemorrhage; corticol results showed that electro-hydraulic shock reapplication in the rat kidneys didn’t greater damages than the first application.
