    PURPOSE: To access the effect of repeated extracorporeal shock wave (ESW) on urinary biochemical markers METHODS: 20 rats were assigned for ESW (Direx Tripter X1® - 14 KV) to one of two groups: G1 (n=10) one ESW; G2 (n=10) two ESWs within a 14-day interval. Within the twenty-four hour period before and after the application of shock waves, the animals were placed in metabolic cages for 24 hour urine collection. The ph, creatinine, sodium, potassium, chlorides, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, oxalates, alkaline phosphatase and citrates were measured. Twenty-four hours after the material was collected for urinary determination, the animals underwent nephrectomy of the kidney submitted to the ESW applications and were, then, sacrificed. The kidneys were processed for hispatological examination. RESULTS: Small variations in the biochemical markers were found in both groups, with no significant differences between the values obtained either prior to or following the ESW applications, except for citrate and alkaline phosphatase. Citraturia decreased significantly in group 2, following the second ESWL application (24.8 ± 3.0 mg/day after the first ESWL vs. 15.3 ± 2.2 mg/day after the second ESWL; p < 0.05). Alkaline phosphatase increased significantly following ESWL in group I (0.57 ± 0.02 vs. 0.79 ± 0.04 µmol/mg creatinine; p < 0.01) and also in group 2 (0.69 ± 0.05 vs. 0.83 ± 0.03 µmol/mg creatinine; p < 0.05). Glomerular, interstitial and sub-capsular hemorrhage with perivascular edema was found in the animals in both groups studied. CONCLUSIONS: A significant increase in urinary alkaline phosphatase was found in both groups studied, suggesting a proximal tubule lesion. In the group of rats undergoing more than one ESWL application, a smaller urinary citrate excretion was noticed, which may be a factor contributing for the formation of new calculi.

    The repeated extracorporeal shock waves and the renal parenchyma injury on normal and diabetic rats
    (Sociedade Brasileira para o Desenvolvimento da Pesquisa em Cirurgia, 2007-08-01) Kira, Vicente Massaji [UNIFESP]; Fagundes, Djalma José [UNIFESP]; Bandeira, César Orlando Peralta; Fagundes, Anna Tereza Negrini; Ortiz, Valdemar [UNIFESP]; State University of Maringá; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Santo Amaro University School of Medicine
    PURPOSE: To assess the effect of repeated extracorporeal shock waves (ESW) on renal parenchyma of normal and diabetic rats. METHODS: 40 normal rats (A) and 40 diabetic rats (B) were assigned for ESW (Direx Tripter X1® - 14 KVA) as follow: A1/B1 and A3/B3 no ESW; A2/B2 one ESW (2,000 SW); A4/B4 two ESW (4,000 SW) in an elapsed 14 days. All the animals were sacrificed 3 days after the ESW and samples of renal parenchyma were histological prepared, stained by H&E. For each animal the frequency of hemorrhage focus (HF) in the subcapasular, interstitial and glomerulus area was calculated (porcentage) on 20 randomly histological sections. RESULTS: No one HF was identified in all normal or diabetic animals without ESW (A1, A3 and B1, B3). In the normal rats the HF frequency was similar to one ESW (subcapsular =15%; interstitial =20% and glomerular =10%) or repetead ESW (subcapsular =25%; interstitial =20%; glomerular=10%). In diabetic rats the occurence of HF with repetead ESW was more frequent (subcapsular =40%; interstitial =30% and glomerular =10%) than with a single ESW (subcapsular =25%; interstitial =15% and glomerular =15%). CONCLUSION: A single ESW or a repeated ESW caused a mild and similar damage on renal cortex of normal rats. In diabetic rats the repetead ESW may result in an accumulated damage, especially with focus of hemorrhage in subcapsular and interstitial tissue and glomerulus edema.
