Choosing the right surgery for your kidney stone?

- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- In this video I talk about ureteroscopy versus extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy for upper ureteral kidney stones. What are the pros and cons of each procedure? How does your surgeon think about these things when recommending one versus the other procedure.
I hope this helps demystify the process and helps explain why one surgery might be better than another.

Had a lithotripsy on 05AUG24... 6 mm stone in lower left pole. Had anesthesia... I actually felt fine afterwards with no pain PTL! Subsequent KUB X-ray showed NO signs of a stone. Good luck everyone!!!
Which one is best way
I have a 25mm stone getting removed in 2 weeks with PCNL surgery. Wish I could do something more minor like these.
I have 2cm stone and I take medicine and tomorrow my doctor he will operate me.🥺 I hope I can survived I am scared first time in my life operation.😔🥺🥺
I'm to scared also because I have 3.02cm stone 🥺😔
Hope both of u are okay now 🤍
I have a 10 cm stone, had 4 lithotripsy sessions so far and they put a stent before the first session. 6 weeks now with the stent, haven't golfed or done much physical work in all that time. Pain in the kidney every single time that I have to go pee!
😵 ouch it's too pain full like this
Hi doctor, I have a question How about the kidney stone not been break yet but the stent still keep inside for a month and then after 2 weeks already but still pain and bleeding it is normal or having problems?

WTF IM NOT DOING THIS, I HAVE AN 8MM STONE. IT FLARES UP WHEN I EAT FOOD...
Dr.-cool editionn.
I did the Uerteroscopy ...., It was very good..did not have stone problems...but i lost my sperm flow...and was told over time it will come back...but did not...can shed some information...about that
How are you now is everything normal??
Was wondering. Is the pain from urine backing up or the stone scratching its way down.
I'd like to know this too, mine becomes inflamed bad when i eat a decent meal. I have a 7-8mm stone in ureter. I DO NOT want that camera up my pee hole...
Some studies support performing ureteroscopy in some patients with just local anesthesia... that is, lidocaine jelly injected into urethra. Granted, lidocaine gel is a lousy numbing agent -- yet despite that, the studies reported that patients did well without more intrusive anesthetics. Just wondering what you think about having a ureteroscopy done sans GA or SA?
You are nuts if you think someone will accept this without Anasthesia, being put to sleep.
Doc my husband we undergo 0pen surgery of kidney stone i safe that thank you
I have kidney stones 2.2cm and 1.1cm my right kidney

RIRS better option
Lithotripsy was a waste of time and money for me. Nothing passed.
The same happened to me. I ended up having ureterscopy and blasted the 1 cm stone
Y waste of time?size of ur stone...1week done shockwave 4 two .5mm
👍
I have bilateral kidney stones
Right kidney one stone 12 mm
Left kidney two.. 7 mm and 5 mm
My doctor suggest RIRS
Is that surgery will be successfull,
Infuture any chances of return the stones
What about the kidney functions after the surgery
And what about penis fuction after surgery
Dear doctor kindly shed light on my doubts 🙏🏻🙏🏻
