Know About the best Surgical treatment of Kidney Stones

Kidney stone treatment has seen dramatic changes in the last three decades. Open Kidney Stone Surgery was replaced by Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy & Percutaneous Surgery of Kidney Stones in Nineteen eighties & the incidence of Open Kidney Stone Surgery was reduced to 1 to 2 %. Similarly, Open Surgery for Ureteric Stones was replaced by rigid Ureteroscopy.
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy
Kidney stone treatment by SWL Has a limited but definite use today. It should be used for stones of around one cm. preferably in the upper part of the Kidney.
Percutaneous Surgery of Kidney Stones
This is a widely practised Keyhole surgery for Kidney stones & has good results particularly for large stones in the Kidney. Surgery has a significant complication rate.
