Kidney Stone Removal
Kidney Stone Removal is a procedure to eliminate stones that form in the kidneys due to crystal buildup. Treatment depends on the size, type, and location of the stone. Options include medication, shock wave therapy, or minimally invasive surgery. The goal is to relieve pain, prevent infection, and restore normal urinary flow. Timely treatment helps avoid complications like kidney damage.
ESWL – Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy uses sound waves to break stones into smaller pieces that can pass through urine.
PCNL – Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy involves small incisions to remove larger or complex stones directly from the kidney.
Diagnosis is confirmed through imaging tests like ultrasound, X-ray, or CT scan. Blood and urine tests help identify infection, crystal types, and underlying causes. This allows doctors to determine the best method for removal and to prevent recurrence.
