Specialist in URSL: Ureteroscopic lithotripsy

Ureteroscopic lithotripsy is a highly effective minimally invasive surgery to treat ureter stones. Due to the crystallisation of minerals, stones occur in the urinary tract.

This slowly grows and blocks the flow of urine. Hence the urine can't flow out normally.

For the procedure, using the ultrasound the location of the stone is detected. The instrument ureteroscope is inserted into the urethra via the bladder and the surgery is taken place.

The benefit of Ureteroscopy is its long, thin structure with a tiny fibre-optic camera at the other edge.

This helps to see beyond the bladder through the ureters. Through this instrument, the stone is either pulled out or broken into very tiny pieces.

The accomplishment rate of this surgery is very high in wiping out stones in one attempt.
