Ureteroscopy: Kidney Stones Treatment Nairobi, Kenya
06 Feb, 2025 11:57 AM
URETEROSCOPY is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat problems in the urinary tract, such as kidney stones, strictures, or abnormal growths. During the procedure, a small, flexible tube with a camera - called a ureteroscope - is gently inserted through the urethra into the bladder and up the ureter. This allows the doctor to directly visualize the area of concern.
How It Works:
• Examination: The ureteroscope transmits clear images, helping the doctor locate stones, blockages, or other issues.
• Treatment: If a problem is found, specialized instruments can break up or remove kidney stones and address other abnormalities during the same procedure.
• Recovery: Being minimally invasive, ureteroscopy generally offers a faster recovery time compared to traditional surgery.
Key Benefits:
• Accurate Diagnosis: Direct visualization of the urinary tract leads to precise identification of issues.
• Effective Treatment: Many conditions, especially kidney stones, can be treated immediately during the procedure.
• Minimal Downtime: Most patients recover quickly and can resume normal activities soon after the procedure.
If you experience symptoms like severe back or side pain, blood in the urine, or frequent urinary infections, ureteroscopy may be a valuable diagnostic and treatment option.
