2 For almost 40 years shockwaves are used successfully in urology practically without side effects. Just the mechanical properties of shockwaves were of interest (PRESSURE). For use in all other medical disciplines the biological effects are most important. The absence of dangerous long term effects (malignant degeneration of treated soft tissues, etc.) is the only important message.

3 Effects on Bone Tissue In control X-rays performed one year after disintegration of ureter and bladder concrements, Haupt (1986, Bochum) observed a thickening of the iliac bone where the shockwaves passed through. kidney swollen ureter iliac crest where the SW travels through stone in ureter bladder

4 Effects on Bone Tissue In the beginning we focused on the mechanical forces.

5 Hypothesis: ESWT Mechanical Model Provocation of micro lesions in the tissue initiates and stimulates tissue repair/regeneration processes.

6 Histological findings 3 weeks after high energy shockwave application: highly active osteocytes/osteoblasts formation of new bony tissue necrotic osteocytes (empty vacuoles) cortical swelling

7 ESWT Mechanical Model Today we know that this hypothesis was completely wrong..

8 ESWT Mechanical Model First doubts on this mechanical model came up when Schaden et al. (2001) could show, that less number of pulses (= less total amount of energy) is more efficient in the treatment of non-unions. Maier et al. (2002, Munich) proved most efficient osteostimulation in rat femura at energy levels without any mechanical destruction.

9 Influence Number of Impulses Pulses Number Healed Failure < (72%) 70 (28%) > 3000 < (79%) 47 (21%) > < (65%) 14 (35%) > < (62%) 14 (38%) > (70%) 28 (30%) total (73%) 173 (27%) Numbers are shown for long bones and scaphoid Schaden et al., 2001, Clin Orthop

26 Laxity, Elastic Deformation, Stiffness, Elasticity: comparable to contralateral side

27 From Mechanical Model to Bioresponse Lower amounts of pulses more effective (Schaden) Osteogenesis without mechanical destruction (Maier) Hypothesis: SW treatment causes biological responses without damaging / destroying tissue

28 Biological Response of Shock Wave in Tendon Materials and Methods: 50 New Zealand white rabbits, 12 months old, body weight ranging from 2.5 to 3.5 Kg were used in this study. The right limbs (study side) received 500 impulses of shock wave treatment at 14 KV (equivalent to 0.18 mj/mm 2 ) to the Achilles tendon near the insertion of the heel bone. The left limbs (control side) received sham treatment. Wang (Taiwan)

29 Biological Response of Shock Waves in Tendon Materials and Methods: Biopsies of the Achilles tendon-bone unit were performed in both the study and control limbs in 0, 1, 4, 8 and 12 weeks with 10 rabbits at each time period. The neo-vessels were examined microscopically with H-E stain. Tendon Bone (Neo-vessel) (10 X) (H-E stain) (40 X) Wang (Taiwan)
