Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy Surgery Hospital in Habsiguda, Hyderabad

Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to remove large kidney stones that are too big to be passed naturally. This technique is particularly effective for stones larger than 2 cm, providing an efficient solution for patients suffering from painful kidney stones and related complications. At Ritvik Kidney Centre and Androcare, we specialize in offering advanced PCNL services under the expert guidance of Dr. P. Naveen Kumar, a leading urologist in Habsiguda.

Understanding PCNL

PCNL involves creating a small incision in the skin to access the kidney directly. This procedure allows for the direct removal of kidney stones using specialized instruments, minimizing the need for larger incisions and resulting in faster recovery times. This method is preferred for its ability to treat larger stones and for its effectiveness in preventing stone recurrence.

The PCNL Procedure

The PCNL procedure involves several key steps:

• Pre-Operative Assessment: Before the surgery, patients undergo a thorough evaluation, including imaging studies like CT scans or ultrasounds, to determine stone size and location.
• Anesthesia: The procedure is performed under general anesthesia or regional anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.
• Accessing the Kidney: A small incision, usually less than 1 cm, is made in the back to access the kidney. A nephroscope (a thin, lighted tube) is then inserted into the kidney through this incision.
• Stone Removal: Using specialized tools, the surgeon fragments the stones into smaller pieces and removes them from the kidney. In some cases, a ureteral stent may be placed to help drainage after the procedure.
