Zusammenfassung:Introduction : Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is known as the most common method in treating urinary stones (70%) and is a selective method to treat small urinary stones (25 kg/m2 and BMI 25 kg/ m2 and BMI 7.5 cm predicts treatment failure. Conclusion : BMI and SSD are effective factors on the outcome of ESWL. Higher BMI and SSD> 7.5 cm are effective factors on treatment failure.
