RESUMO
La aplicación de ondas de choque focales y de ondas de presión radial en patología musculoesquelética ha tenido un gran desarrollo y difusión en la última década. Si bien la mayoría de las publicaciones han resaltado su seguridad y eficacia, no están exentas de malos resultados y complicaciones. Esta revisión analiza las principales causas de los malos resultados, efectos adversos y complicaciones, haciendo énfasis en su prevención.(AU)
