It is one of our specialized procedures is Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy (URSL), a highly effective and minimally invasive surgery designed to treat stones in the ureter and kidney.
Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy (URSL) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat stones located in the ureter and the kidney. It involves the use of a ureteroscope, a thin, flexible tube equipped with a camera and laser, which is inserted through the urethra and bladder to reach the stone.
The stone is then fragmented into smaller pieces using laser energy, allowing for easy removal or natural passage through the urinary tract.
Recovery from URSL is typically swift, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few days. You may experience mild discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medications. It is important to follow our post-operative care instructions, which include staying hydrated, avoiding strenuous activities for a short period, and attending follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery and ensure all stone fragments have passed.
