Abstract
Devices, methods, and systems provide a catheter-based device comprising an expandable portion that is placed distally of the obstructive or occluding mass, which substantially prevents fragments generated by ablating the occluding mass with a lithotripter, for example, a laser lithotripter, from traveling upstream, thereby improving the safety and effectiveness of lithotripsy Some embodiments of the device further comprise a through lumen through which fluid is introduced into a renal collecting system, thereby maintains positive pressure that biases the fragments generated by lithotripsy from entering the collecting system.
