Ureteroscopy (URS) Surgery in Ahmedabad
Ureteroscopy (URS) is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the ureters—the tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. This procedure is most commonly employed to remove kidney stones lodged in the ureters or to address other abnormalities within the urinary tract.
During URS, a thin, flexible tube called a ureteroscope is inserted through the urethra and into the bladder, then gently guided into the ureter. This allows the urologist to visually inspect the urinary tract and remove any stones or abnormal tissue. The procedure is performed under general or spinal anesthesia and usually requires only a short hospital stay. URS offers a quick recovery time and is highly effective in resolving ureteral stones and other blockages.
Common Symptoms Indicating the Need for URS
Why This Procedure is Important?
Ureteroscopy is crucial for treating stones or obstructions in the ureters that cannot be managed with other methods like medication or shock wave lithotripsy. Left untreated, these obstructions can lead to serious complications, including infection, kidney damage, or loss of kidney function. URS allows for the direct visualization and removal of stones or other blockages, effectively restoring normal urine flow and alleviating pain and discomfort.
