Endoscopic Ureteral Stone Removal: Flexible Laser

Endoscopic Ureteral Stone Treatment – Effective Solutions

A Life Health Group offers innovative and effective solutions for your ureteral stone problems, such as endoscopic ureteral stone treatment with flexible laser. This minimally invasive surgical method allows for the efficient fragmentation and removal of stones in the ureter. It provides patients with less pain and a faster recovery time, enabling them to return to their daily lives more quickly.

What is Endoscopic Ureteral Stone Treatment?

Flexible laser endoscopic ureteral stone treatment is a modern endoscopic method that allows the removal of stones formed within the urinary tract (ureter). During this procedure, a thin and flexible endoscope is advanced into the ureter. When the endoscope reaches the stone, laser energy breaks the stone into small fragments. These fragments are either naturally expelled through urine or removed with the help of the endoscope.

Thanks to the high-resolution imaging capability of flexible endoscopes, surgeons can clearly see the size and location of the stone. This ensures complete stone removal and reduces the risk of recurrence for the patient.

Why is Endoscopic Ureteral Stone Treatment Necessary?

Ureteral stones can cause obstruction in the channel that carries urine from the kidney to the bladder. This may lead to severe pain, difficulty urinating, and impaired kidney function.

Flexible laser endoscopic treatment is necessary in the following cases:

  • Severe Symptoms: Unbearable back and groin pain that does not subside with medication or increased fluid intake.
  • Restricted Movement: Sharp and sudden pain that limits daily activities.
  • Recurring Stone Problems: Frequent stone formation in the same area that persists despite previous treatments.
  • Urinary Obstruction: Stones completely blocking the ureter, preventing urine flow.
  • Risk of Kidney Damage: Potential deterioration of kidney function due to prolonged obstruction.

In such cases, instead of waiting for the stone to pass naturally, endoscopic treatment provides a safe and permanent solution.

Comprehensive Diagnosis and Evaluation

Before endoscopic ureter stone treatment, patients undergo a detailed assessment. The location and size of the stone, as well as kidney function, are examined using laboratory tests, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), and MRI imaging methods. This allows for a personalized treatment plan tailored to each patient.

Modern Surgical Methods

Endoscopic ureter stone treatment with flexible laser is performed using minimally invasive techniques. Hospital stays are shortened, and recovery is faster for patients.

Patient-Centered Approach

A Life Health Group informs the patient at every stage of the treatment. Preoperative preparations, methods applied during the procedure, and postoperative care instructions are shared with the patient in detail.

Postoperative Care and Support

After surgery, we provide our patients with the necessary care and support to accelerate the recovery process and maintain their health. We support the healing process through physical activity guidance and nutritional adjustments.

Ureteral Stone Treatment Processes

Preoperative Process
  • Consultation: Initial evaluation by the urologist and detailed assessment of symptoms.
  • Imaging Tests: Ultrasound, CT, or MRI examinations to determine the location and size of the stone.
  • Preparation: Blood tests, kidney function tests, and anesthesia assessment.
Surgical Method
  • Anesthesia: Usually performed under general anesthesia. In some cases, sedation may be preferred.
  • Surgical Procedure: A flexible endoscope is advanced through the urethra to reach the stone. The stone is fragmented using laser energy and removed.
Postoperative Period
Recovery Process

Patients are usually discharged on the same day. Compared to highly invasive surgery, there is less pain and a faster recovery process.

Precautions

During the postoperative period, it is expected to follow the doctor's recommendations and avoid strenuous activities. Adequate fluid intake is important.

Possible Risks and Complications

As with any surgical procedure, endoscopic ureter stone treatment carries certain risks:

  • Risk of infection
  • Mild urinary tract bleeding
  • Complications related to anesthesia
  • Possibility of stone recurrence

Although these risks are low, procedures performed by experienced surgeons ensure the highest level of safety.
