Stones in the urinary system are the result of high concentrations of salt or minerals, blockage from excess tissue caused by abnormal growths or prostate enlargement, and harmful lifestyle choices. These stones usually form in the kidney but can be dislodged and move down the ureter or bladder, causing pain.
One of the best treatment options for removing these stones is through ureteroscopy with laser.
When the stones are located, they are disintegrated using a Holmium laser to make them easier to remove.
Ureteroscopy is an outpatient procedure performed in the hospital or surgery center. It may take approximately 90 minutes to complete the procedure. You may feel a slight burning sensation for several hours after the procedure.
