Kidney Stone Facts

Mykare Health is committed to providing hassle-free kidney stone removal surgeries in the best facilities with individualized care. It is a patient-centered, technology-driven healthcare service provider. Consult our skilled urology surgeons in Bangalore to choose a stress-free, cost-effective, highly advanced kidney stone removal technique before it worsens. Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery : The cutting-edge procedure known as RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) is used to treat kidney stones that are 8 mm to 15 mm in size. The anaesthesia professional will first administer a spinal or general anaesthetic based on the patient's request for kidney stone painless treatment. Under spinal anaesthesia, the patient is numb below the waist while undergoing kidney stone surgery. While under general anaesthesia, the patient is fully unconscious. The urologist then uses an endoscope that is flexible and thin with a tiny laser on the other end. The kidney stone surgeon navigates the patient's body to find the stones using imaging methods. The stones are extracted with forceps, and after being divided into smaller pieces with microscopic lasers, they are removed. Following that, the stone particles are eliminated by the urine. Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy : Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy, often known as ESWL, is a type of shockwave lithotripsy. The doctor uses external shock waves to break down the kidney stone into tiny bits during this minimally invasive technique. A spinal anaesthetic is administered to the patient to lessen the pain after the stones are expelled from the body. It may take several sessions of the conventional technique, ESWL, to completely remove the stones. Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy : A minimally invasive treatment for treating kidney stones greater than 15 mm in diameter is called Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL). It is sometimes known as "tunnel surgery" because of the microscopic incisions. Before the surgery, the anesthesiologist administers a general anaesthetic to ensure a pain-free procedure. The patient will not be conscious during the surgery. The kidney stone surgeon will then make a 1 cm incision on the flank (lower back area). The kidney stone surgeon locates the stones and breaks them up using a nephroscope. The stone can either be flushed out in its whole or, if it is too large, it can be broken up into smaller pieces. Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy : The patient receives a spinal or general anaesthetic during URSL (Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy). A ureteroscope, a small tube with a camera and laser on the other end, is then inserted into the ureter by the kidney stone surgeon. The stones are located by the camera, and the laser then breaks them into smaller pieces.These are then flushed out while urinating. The urologist inserts stents into the ureter to widen the ureter opening and make it easier for stones to flow through.

You will have to undergo several tests to help your kidney stone doctor get a clear picture of your overall health. They include:

Blood tests
KUB X-ray (Kidney, ureter, bladder)
An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG)
Ultrasonography
A CT scan or MRI gives a clear picture of the abdomen and pelvic tissues.

People between the ages of 20 and 50 are most susceptible to kidney stones.
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) states that men are more likely than women to develop kidney stones.
Due to the fact that kidney stone occurrence runs in families, genetics may potentially be a factor.
Dehydration, obesity, a diet high in protein, salt, or glucose, hyperparathyroidism, gastric bypass surgery, inflammatory bowel illnesses that enhance calcium absorption, and taking certain medications are some of the additional risk factors.
Consumption of medication such as triamterene diuretics, antiseizure drugs, and calcium-based antacids increases inflammatory bowel diseases.
