About Kidney stones

Kidney stones form when there are excess salts and minerals in the kidneys. Kidneys are responsible for the removal of waste and fluid from the body through urine. When the concentration of waste is more than the fluid, the waste accumulates to form lumps which result in the formation of kidney stones. They are not always painful and some patients can barely feel any pain or discomfort.

If the stones travel to the ureter, patients can suffer immense sudden pain in the lower back or even cause serious complications. Kidney stones can vary in size, they can be as small as a granule of sand to the size of a golf ball.

Treatment

Diagnosis

You should reach out to a specialist doctor as soon as you notice the symptoms of kidney stones.

The specialist doctor will discuss your medical history to get a better understanding of your condition. They may perform a physical examination and ask you to undergo some imaging tests for the proper diagnosis of the size and the location of the kidney stones.

In addition to imaging tests, your doctor may also conduct some blood and urine tests to get a detailed insight into the condition of your kidney stones.

And, before providing the treatment, your doctor will ask you a few questions about your diet and check for where you feel the bouts of pain the most.

Surgery

There are a number of techniques available for the treatment of kidney stones. The most modern and effective surgical treatments for kidney stones include laparoscopic treatment, laser treatment and shock wave lithotripsy.

In laparoscopic treatment for kidney stones, the surgeon makes a small incision in the renal pelvis or the ureter, depending upon the location of the kidney stone.The surgeon then inserts a small laparoscopic device into the urinary tract and looks for kidney stones. The kidney stones are then removed through the incision and the incision is closed with minor stitches. It is a minimally invasive procedure and is performed under the administration of anesthesia.

Laser treatment for kidney stones involves the use of laser energy for breaking the stones into small fragments. The surgeon inserts a device called an ureteroscope into the ureter through the urethra. Then the surgeon looks for the kidney stone and once it is found, high-intensity laser energy is aimed at the stone. The laser energy breaks the stones into small pieces, some of which are removed through a small bucket and the rest are flushed out through the urine.

In shock wave lithotripsy, the doctor uses thousands of shock wave pulses to break the larger stone into smaller pieces. After that, you will be asked to drink a lot of fluids so that the small stone pieces can travel easily through the urinary tract and then eventually get flushed out through the urine.

  • Caffeine can have a dehydrating effect. So avoid drinking too much caffeine.

Which surgery for kidney stones you should go for in Jaipur?

  • URS (Ureteroscopy) – In this, the ureteroscope is passed through the urethra and into the ureter to remove a stone using laser energy.
  • RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) – It is a procedure for doing surgery within the kidney using a flexible ureteroscope to remove the upper ureter and small kidney stones.
  • PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy) – It is a minimally invasive procedure in which large kidney stones are removed through a small incision in the skin.

Why should you not delay kidney stone removal surgery?

Small kidney stones can pass out on their own. But if the stone is large in size (5mm or more) or is causing an obstruction in the urinary tract, the urologist suggests surgery for fast relief.

Major and serious risks of delaying kidney stones are hydronephrosis and permanent kidney damage. Hydronephrosis is a serious medical condition in which the kidneys get inflamed. This usually happens when a large kidney stone blocks the ureter.

Large or chronic kidney stones carry a high risk of causing permanent damage to the kidney and may even lead to kidney loss. Severe kidney damage associated with untreated or large kidney stones often occurs without any symptoms, thus it is necessary to undergo kidney stone removal surgery to treat the condition. Delaying treatment for kidney stones also increases the risk of patient morbidity and more frequent use of antibiotics.

What is the estimated cost of kidney stone removal in Jaipur?

The estimated cost of kidney stone surgery in Jaipur varies as per the treatment suggested. The average cost of different surgical procedures are:

URSL (Ureteroscopic lithotripsy)- INR 50,000 to INR 55,000

ESWL (Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy)- INR 30,000 to INR 35,000

PCNL (Percutaneous nephrolithotomy)- INR 50,000 to INR 55,000

  • Mild pain and nausea as the stones are expelled from the body after the treatment.
  • Some bruising on the back or side after your shock waves lithotripsy procedure.

Complications of untreated kidney stones

Kidney stone is a major condition that usually results in unbearable pain. However, people are at greater risk if they ignore the symptoms by prolonging the treatment. It can lead to several complications that can eventually become life-threatening-

  • Hydronephrosis – When the stone blocks the ureteral passage, it creates difficulty for the urine to completely drain out from the kidneys. This leads to the accumulation of urine in the kidneys, causing swelling of a kidney. Hydronephrosis can occur in one or both kidneys, depending on the size and number of stones.
  • Renal scarring – Urinary tract infection is a common bacterial illness that occurs due to prolonged kidney stones in the ureter. These stones can cause continuous scarring around the stone damaging the tissues and organs around the kidneys causing permanent renal failure.
  • Kidney failure – Prolonged kidney stones can cause loss of kidney functions which can result in the need to remove either of the kidneys (nephrectomy).
