Comprehensive Kidney Stone Treatment at Yashoda Hospitals with Lithotripsy

Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy (ESWL) is an advanced, non-invasive procedure for kidney stone treatment. It utilizes high-frequency sound waves to break kidney stones into smaller fragments, allowing them to pass naturally through urine. Kidney stones, or renal calculi, are hard mineral deposits that form in the kidney or urinary tract. While they can cause severe pain and blood in the urine, they are generally not life-threatening.

Treatment options vary based on the stone’s size and location, ranging from lifestyle modifications and medications to minimally invasive procedures like lithotripsy or surgical interventions. Depending on their placement, kidney stones are classified as nephrolithiasis (kidney stones), urolithiasis (bladder or urinary tract stones), or ureterolithiasis (stones in the ureters).

Yashoda Hospitals offers the best kidney stone removal treatment based on the size and placement of the stone. We have one of the best teams of kidney stone treatment doctors, who are highly specialized in treating extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy, ureteroscopy, percutaneous nephrolithotomy, and open surgery. Our non-invasive procedures provide the patient with rapid recovery and state-of-the-art care.

Who needs a Lithotripsy?

  • Individuals with larger than 5–6 mm stones that do not pass on their own.
  • Individuals experiencing extreme pain and obstruction of urine flow.
  • Individuals with complications such as hydronephrosis (swelling of the kidney due to urine buildup).
  • Individuals with bladder & ureteral stones need a lithotripsy.

Types of kidney stone removal treatments:

Kidney stones can pass on their own in certain cases, while larger stones need surgical or minimally invasive procedures.

  • Open surgery: Open surgery is rarely used to remove kidney stones anymore. Doctors may advise open surgery only when stones are stuck, blocking urine flow and causing extreme pain and bleeding.
  • Minimally invasive procedures: The larger stones are broken up by ultrasound shock waves to easily remove them through the urine, e.g., extracorporeal shock wave treatments.

FAQ's

Kidney stones can be treated with lifestyle changes, certain medications, and procedures like lithotripsy or surgery, depending on the size, number, and severity of the condition.

Kidney stones up to 5 mm in size can be treated with techniques like shock wave lithotripsy, but stones larger than 10 mm require surgery.

Since the procedure is carried out by administering anesthesia to the patient, they may not feel pain during lithotripsy; however, slight discomfort is common post-procedure.

Individuals may recover from lithotripsy in a few days and resume their regular activities, but 1-2 weeks is the ideal recovery time.

Symptoms like lower back pain, frequent urination, and blood in the urine are common after laser lithotripsy and will gradually get better.

Despite being a generally safe procedure, lithotripsy carries a small risk of kidney damage if it's not performed appropriately.
