About Ureteroscopy

Ureteroscopy is a highly effective, minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat stones located in the ureters or kidneys. This advanced technique involves the use of a thin, flexible instrument called a ureteroscope, which is inserted through the urethra and bladder to reach the stones. Ureteroscopy is particularly beneficial for stones that are too large to pass naturally or that cause significant pain and discomfort.

At Stone & Kidney Hospital, our skilled urologists utilize state-of-the-art ureteroscopic equipment to ensure precise and efficient stone removal. Our approach prioritizes patient comfort and aims to provide rapid relief from symptoms.

Our Approach:

  1. Initial Consultation:The ureteroscopy journey begins with a detailed consultation with our urology specialists. During this session, we perform imaging studies such as X-rays, ultrasounds, or CT scans to accurately locate the stones and assess their size and composition. This step is crucial for planning the most effective treatment approach.
  2. Personalized Treatment Plan:Based on the evaluation, our experts develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to the patient’s specific needs. Factors such as the stone’s size, type, and location, as well as the patient’s overall health, are considered to ensure the best possible outcome.
  3. Ureteroscopy Procedure: On the day of the procedure, the patient is placed under general or local anesthesia for comfort. The ureteroscope is carefully inserted through the urethra and bladder to reach the ureter and kidney. Once the stones are located, they can be directly removed or broken into smaller fragments using laser or ultrasonic energy, making them easier to pass naturally.
  4. Post-Procedure Care: After the ureteroscopy procedure, patients are monitored in a recovery area to ensure stability and comfort. Our medical team provides detailed post-operative instructions, including pain management, hydration tips, and activity guidelines. Most patients can resume normal activities within a few days, although individual recovery times may vary.
  5. Follow-Up: Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor the patient’s recovery and ensure the complete removal of stones. Additional imaging may be performed to confirm the success of the procedure. Our team remains available to address any concerns or questions during the recovery period.
  6. Holistic Support:At Stone & Kidney Hospital, we believe in a holistic approach to kidney health. In addition to ureteroscopy, we offer dietary and lifestyle counseling to help prevent the recurrence of kidney stones. Our dieticians work with patients to develop kidney-friendly eating plans, and our medical team provides guidance on hydration and other preventive measures.

Ureteroscopy at Stone & Kidney Hospital combines the expertise of our medical team with the most advanced technology to offer a safe, effective, and minimally invasive solution for kidney and ureteral stone removal. Our commitment to patient-centered care ensures that each patient receives the highest level of treatment and support throughout their journey to better kidney health.
