Advanced Treatment for 5.7 mm Kidney Stone

Have you been diagnosed with kidney stones? Then you would probably know the discomfort they cause. This condition affects a large number of people every year. However, the agony caused by these stones varies from person to person. The severity of kidney stones symptoms depends upon the size of the stone. A kidney stone that's smaller than 5 mm may or may not cause any symptoms, and in most cases, wouldn't require treatment. However, stones bigger than that, say 5.7 mm can cause some symptoms and always require medical attention. So, if you have a 5.7 mm kidney stone, make sure you get it treated in time! We have a dedicated team of surgeons who have expertise in dealing with complex cases of kidney stones. They treat kidney stones of all sizes using advanced treatment methods, and ensure that the patient is at complete ease during and after the surgery.

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.

Surgery

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 a 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.
