The results of 517 cases of urethral stones were analyzed concerning stone location, urethral manipulation and treatment position. The ureter was divided into six segments: ureteropelvic junction (PUJ), proximal ureter (PS1 and PS2), midureter (VS), and distal ureter (DS1 and DS2). The overall fragmentation rate was 78%. Extracorporeal piezoelectric lithotripsy combined with endourological manipulation is highly efficient in the management of ureteropelvic junction and distal ureter DS1. The advantages of the "EDAP LT" 01 are the mobility of the wave unit and rare need for general anesthesia.
