Surgical Options For Stone Removal
URS / RIRS (Laser Lithotripsy)
No external incision. A thin scope uses laser power to fragment stones into dust or small pieces. Ideal for medium kidney or ureter stones.
ESWL (Shock Wave Treatment)
Non-invasive focused shock waves from outside the body. Best for small, soft stones. Minimal downtime.
PCNL (Keyhole Surgery)
Direct access to the kidney via a tiny incision in the back. High success rate for large (>10mm) or complex stones.
