Today, we will discuss ureteric stones.
The ureter is a small tube that connects your kidneys to your urinary bladder, allowing urine to pass through. When a kidney stone slips into the ureter, it becomes known as a ureteric stone. The symptoms of this condition depend on the location of the stone within the ureter.
We will cover its symptoms, testing, management, and prevention.
Causes and Types of Ureteric Stones
Kidney stones can lead to the formation of ureteric stones in several ways:
A kidney stone slips into the ureter.
A stone breaks apart and enters the ureter.
An obstruction occurs in the upper or lower ureter.
The most common types of kidney stones include:
Calcium Stones: The most prevalent type.
Uric Acid Stones: Caused by high levels of uric acid.
Struvite Stones: Formed due to urinary infections.
Cystine Stones: Result from high production of cystine.
Risk Factors
Certain factors increase the risk of developing ureteric stones:
Low water intake
Diabetes
Polycystic kidney disease
Family history of kidney stones
Symptoms
Symptoms of ureteric stones can include:
Sharp pain, especially in the flank, which may travel downwards towards the bladder.
Pain while passing urine
Nausea or vomiting
Blood in the urine
Changes in urine color
Frequent urge to urinate
Difficulty in urinating
Testing for Ureteric Stones
Several tests can help diagnose ureteric stones:
Urinalysis: Detects blood, infection, or stone crystals in the urine.
Blood Tests: Assess kidney function.
Ultrasound: Identifies stones in the ureter.
CT Scan: Provides a clear picture if ultrasound results are inconclusive.
Treatment Options
Treatment depends on the size and location of the stone:
Small Stones (Les 5mm): Doctors may prescribe medication and recommend drinking plenty of water or undergoing hydrotherapy to help pass the stone.
Larger Stones or Complications: If the stone doesn’t pass or causes severe pain, frequent infections, or kidney damage, further treatment is necessary.
Advanced Treatment Methods
Ureteroscopy: A thin camera is inserted through the urethra into the ureter to capture or break down the stone for removal.
PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy): For stones in the upper ureter, the stone is pushed back into the kidney and removed.
URS (Ureteroscopic Surgery): For lower ureter stones, this procedure involves inserting a thin tube and stent to ensure proper healing and prevent complications.
Most of these procedures are minimally invasive, allowing you to return to normal activities quickly without the need for external urine bags.
Prevention
To prevent ureteric stones:
Stay well-hydrated by drinking at least 2 to 3 liters of fluid daily.
Reduce intake of animal protein, such as meat and eggs, especially if you have risk factors for stone formation.
Conclusion
We hope this video has provided valuable insights into ureteric stones. If you or someone you know is affected, this information will help you make informed decisions and seek timely treatment.
