    Abstract:
    The aim of the study was to establish the usefulness of ultrasound examination for imaging of stones dislocation in urinary tract after lithotripsy treatment. The study group included 335 children with urolithiasis treated in our Clinic since 1994 until 2005y. In the group were 295 (88%) children with nephrolithiasis and 40 (12%) children with ureterolithiasis. In the whole group 335 children there were performed 619 lithotripsy procedures--545 kidney and 74 ureter units. The ultrasound examinations were performed in each patient before, on the first and second day of the treatment and two months after using the Hitachi EUB 315 with 5Mhz transducer. In the ultrasound examinations after lithotripsy treatment: in 596/619 (96,3%) cases imaging of stones dislocation in urinary tract and urinary retention was possible.
