Kidney Stone Diagnosis & Treatment

Kidney Stone Diagnosis & Treatment

Diagnosis

If you have symptoms of a kidney stone, your urologist may perform the following diagnostic tests to confirm the presence of kidney stones and draft a treatment plan:

Blood and urine tests: Blood tests help assess the calcium and uric acid levels in the blood, which helps evaluate the health of the kidneys. A 24-hour urine collection test examines the components of the urine for stone-forming minerals and stone-preventing substances.
Imaging tests: Imaging tests like CT scans, abdominal X-rays, and ultrasounds help reveal the size and location of kidney stones.
Stone analysis: Often, large kidney stones are associated with small kidney stones. If you collect your urine and pass it through a strainer, you can obtain small renal stones and send them to the lab for analysis.

Treatment

For a kidney stone, you may need one of the following treatments:

ESWL (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy) is a common noninvasive treatment in which shock waves like X-rays or ultrasounds are used to break down stones in the urinary system, pancreas, or bile ducts.
RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) is an endoscopic surgery in which the surgeon uses a fiberoptic endoscope and a ureteroscope to locate and remove renal stones from kidneys or ureters.
Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is performed to remove kidney or upper ureter stones that are too large to be dissolved through ESWL or URSL.
In Ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URSL), the surgeon inserts a ureteroscope through the urethra to locate the stones, and then the stones are destroyed using shock waves. A urethral stent may be placed at the end of the surgery to keep the ureter open after the procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I pass a 13 mm kidney stone naturally?

No, a kidney stone of 13 mm size is very large in size, and it will be impossible and extremely painful to pass it through the urinary tract. It needs to be broken down into small pieces before discharging it out.

Can a 13 mm kidney stone stay inside without any symptoms?

Generally, a kidney stone can go undetected for several weeks and months if it doesn’t move. However, it is less likely that the stone will stay in one place. Eventually, it will move and exhibit symptoms like pain in the back, problems in urinating, etc.

Can drinking more water help a 13 mm kidney stone?

Drinking adequate water is beneficial for overall kidney health, but a 13 mm kidney stone usually does not pass naturally with fluids alone and may require medical or surgical treatment.

How long can a 13 mm kidney stone stay in the ureter?

A 13 mm kidney stone can stay in the ureter for a long time as it will be impossible to pass it through the tract. There is only a 20% chance that the stone will dissolve in about 12 months and pass on its own. If not, you will need surgical treatment.

Which is the most suitable treatment for 13 mm kidney stones?

A 13 mm kidney stone needs to be broken down into smaller pieces so that it can pass through the urinary tract. Thus, extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) is performed to break the stone. In smaller pieces, the stones will automatically get expelled.

When should one visit a urologist for kidney stone treatment?

You should visit a urologist for kidney stone treatment if you exhibit any of the following symptoms:

Sharp and severe pain in the side and/or back that is inconsistent and occurs in waves
Pain radiating towards the lower abdomen and/or groin that occurs in waves of high intensity
Painful urination with cloudy or foul-smelling urine
Pink, red, or brown colored urine due to the presence of blood or blood clots
Severe urinary infections with associated fever and chills
Persistent urge to urinate with a weak urine stream
Nausea and vomiting with gastric discomfort

If you suspect you have a kidney stone, you should seek immediate consultation with expert kidney stone specialists at Pristyn Care for prompt and advanced treatment.
