Abstract：Objective To understand the acute renal function damage after treatment of electromechanical shock wave lithotripsy. Methods Patients received the treatment of electromechanical model. The short term effect of shock wave energy was studied by measuring urinary enzyme activity (NAG;γ-GT)and the excretion of β2-MG.Results Sharply elevated NAG and γ-GT were detected after ESWL and returned to baseline by day 7. β2-MG increased remarkably after ESWL. On day 7 only a mild but still significant elevation was noted. Excretion decreased to baseline by day 15. Conclusions Treatment of electromechanical device may cause acute renal function damage. Significant differences are related to concentration of enzymuria.
