Treatment For Calcium Phosphate Stones

Treatment for calcium phosphate stones  includes pain relievers and drinking lots of water to help pass the stone. Medical procedures may be required to remove or break up larger stones. Some treatment options include: 

Citrate therapy: This is an oral therapy that binds with calcium, and inhibits crystallization by increasing urinary citrate levels. This helps in preventing the formation of stones and even helps in curbing their growth and aggregation. 

Non Surgical Procedures

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL)

ESWL is a non-surgical procedure of kidney stone removal in which an equipment called a ‘lithotripter’ is used to target the stones and break them into smaller pieces. The equipment generates shock waves, which reduce the stones into small pieces or dust, which flushes out of the system on its own. In some cases, the fragments may be removed with the help of an endoscopic procedure. This non-invasive technique is generally suggested to patients with small-sized stones.

Surgical Procedures

Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy (URSL)

When small to medium-sized stones do not respond to non-surgical treatments, the doctors may suggest ureteroscopic lithotripsy or URSL. In this minimally-invasive surgery for kidney stones, the surgeon inserts a ureteroscope into the urinary tract through the urethra to reach the kidneys. Once the stones are located, a laser is used to break the stones into smaller fragments, which can be easily flushed out of the system through urine. This minimally-invasive surgery doesn’t involve any incisions and is generally performed on an outpatient basis. 

Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS)

RIRS is another minimally-invasive surgery for calcium phosphate stones treatment. In this technique, the surgeons use an optic endoscope to reach the kidneys through the urethra. Then, a laser is used to break the stones and remove them. RIRS is generally suggested when the stones are too large in size or the condition is too complex to be treated with other methods. The success rate of this treatment is quite high, and it accompanies minimal complications. 

Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL)

A PCNL surgery is suggested when the stones are too large or too dense and can not be treated through other, less invasive methods. In this method, a small incision is made in the flank area, and a nephroscope is inserted with X-ray guidance. It allows the surgeons to locate the stone precisely. Upon locating the stones, the surgeon uses a thin needle to access the kidney’s urine-collecting system. Then, the surgeon begins the stone-extracting process with the help of microforceps. When the stones are too large, a laser is used to reduce it to smaller pieces, which are then extracted. Finally, upon ensuring that no stones are left in the system, the surgeon closes the incisions and may even place a drainage catheter and DJ stent.
