Laser Surgery For Prostate And Kidney Stones
Laser Surgeries are performed for removal of kidney stones and uretric stones. Kidney stone formation is a common urinary system disorder that can form in any individual. However, men, and overweight people are at a higher risk of developing them.
A urinary tract stone is formed by crystallisation of substances (mostly calcium) in the urine. As the kidneys filter blood of impurities, minerals and acid salts can accumulate and harden over time. These solid crystalline deposits or kidney stones can form in one or both kidneys and may get lodged in the ureters (called ureteric stones).
Laser Surgery for Prostrate is associated with fewer side effects and quicker recovery times compared to the traditional surgery. Enlargement of the prostate, or Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BHP) is the most common problem experienced by older men, and can lead to troublesome urinary symptoms such as:
- An weak or slow urinary stream
- A feeling of incomplete bladder emptying
- Difficulty in starting urination
- Frequent urination and Urgency to urinate
- Getting up frequently at night to urinate
- A urinary stream that starts and stops
- Straining to urinate
- Continued dribbling of urine
- Returning to urinate again minutes after finishing
More often than not, laser urology surgery is the best course of treatment. Consult our Urologists today to chart out the best course of treatment plan.
