Get rid of your kidney stones in minutes without surgery, pain and bleeding with the latest technology Flexible URS method.

You can get rid of urinary system stone disease with endoscopic and laparoscopic methods.

Stones formed in the kidney and urinary tract are an important health problem. For many years, these stones have been treated with open surgery in the kidney, urinary tract (ureter) connecting the kidney to the bladder, and bladder. The great development in surgical technologies in the last ten years has also shown itself in the treatment of urinary tract stones. Now stones can be treated with closed (endoscopic, laparoscopic or percutaneous) methods no matter where and how big the urinary tract is. Those of these stones in the appropriate place and size can also be broken by sound waves (ESWL) from outside the body. Especially, urinary canal stones larger than 5mm can be stuck in the narrow points of the canal and can be surgically removed if they do not fall out despite adequate medical treatment and waiting time. Mehmet Reşat Demir in the Department of Urology at Private Deva Hospital gave information about the stones formed in the kidney and urinary tract and treatment methods.

Higher success is achieved than crushing

Among these technologies, the "Holmium laser", which is used in the treatment of stones in the urinary tract connecting the kidney to the bladder, has a special place. Holmium laser is a technology that can break these stones with great efficiency. Since laser wavelengths that are absorbed by the stone are used during this process, the tissues around the stone do not absorb these wavelengths and are not damaged by this process. At the same time, since the laser breaks the stone without touching it, the risk of stone going up and back to the kidney, which is in the old technologies, is also lower. As a result, stone removal rates of the patient are between 92-95% in surgeries performed with Holmium laser, and these rates represent the highest success rate in the treatment of ureteral stones.

Provides great comfort for the patient

Ureteral stone surgeries performed with holmium laser provide great comfort for the patient. The patient can go home in the evening of the day of surgery. Since there is no incision in the body, it provides less pain in the postoperative period compared to open surgical techniques. Since the treatment is completed in a single session, it is a faster treatment than stone breaking with sound waves (ESWL). In this way, it allows the patient to return to normal activities and work life as soon as possible. Holmium laser, which was used only in the treatment of stones in the urinary tract until recently, now provides an effective treatment for stones located in the kidney with the introduction of flexible (bendable or bendable) ureterorenoscopes. Stones located in the urine collecting system in the inner part of the kidney are reached with these flexible tools and the stones are broken using a Holmium laser. Large stone pieces can be removed from the body by holding them with special tools. The remaining small parts are excreted out of the body with urine.
