Which is better, extracorporeal lithotripsy or minimally invasive

Minimally invasive means minimally invasive surgery. Extracorporeal lithotripsy and minimally invasive surgery are two kinds of treatments, both of which are more effective. 1. Extracorporeal lithotripsy: Extracorporeal lithotripsy can be used to treat kidney stones with a diameter of less than 2cm and more than 0.5cm, as well as ureteral stones and bladder stones. It is a relatively common method of treating urinary stones. The use of shock waves generated outside the body, can be focused directly on the lesions in the patient’s body, so that the stone can be broken, broken stones can be discharged from the body with the urine. 2. Minimally invasive surgery: minimally invasive surgery has a wide range of indications, such as cholecystitis, kidney cysts, etc., and is also one of the more common surgical methods. Minimally invasive surgery uses laparoscopy as a medical device to perform the surgery. There is very little bleeding during the procedure, and there is no damage to the surrounding normal organs and tissues, and recovery after the procedure is relatively quick. Although extracorporeal lithotripsy and minimally invasive surgery are common procedures, it is recommended that patients go to a regular medical institution and choose the appropriate surgical procedure under the guidance of a professional physician.
