Kidney Stone Removal Surgery

What is Kidney Stone Removal Surgery?

Kidney stone removal surgery is performed when stones are too large to pass naturally or cause severe pain, infection, or blockage of urine flow. Modern surgical techniques allow safe and effective removal with minimal discomfort.

Advanced minimally invasive procedures ensure quicker recovery and reduced hospital stay.


When is Surgery Required?

  • Large kidney stones (usually above 6mm–8mm)
  • Severe or persistent pain
  • Recurrent urinary infections
  • Blockage of urine flow
  • Kidney damage risk

Types of Kidney Stone Removal Procedures

  • URS (Ureteroscopy with Laser) – A thin scope is inserted through the urinary passage to break stones using laser technology.
  • PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy) – A minimally invasive procedure used for large kidney stones.
  • RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) – Advanced laser treatment for kidney stones without any large incision.

Diagnosis Before Surgery

Before surgery, detailed evaluation is performed including:

  • Ultrasound
  • CT Scan
  • Blood tests
  • Urine tests

Benefits of Minimally Invasive Surgery

  • No major cuts or stitches
  • Less pain after procedure
  • Short hospital stay
  • Faster return to normal activities
  • High success rate

Post-Surgery Care
