Endourology Journals
Endourology may be a minimally invasive technique available to treat kidney stones. Stones could also be extracted or fragmented using tiny instruments through natural body channels like the urethra, bladder, and ureter. Endourological procedures include:
1. Urethroscopy: wont to treat strictures or blockages of the urethra.
2. Cystoscopy: used to treat bladder stones and tumors. Obstructing prostate tissue are often removed with this approach also (a procedure called “TURP”). Flexible plastic tubes called stents are often passed up the ureter using cystoscopy and x-rays to alleviate blockage of the ureter.
3. Ureteroscopy: wont to treat stones and tumors of the ureter.
4. Nephroscopy: wont to treat stones and tumors of the kidney lining.
This minimally invasive technique for the disintegration of stones involves the administration of shock waves that are generated by a machine called a lithotriptor. After the machine is calibrated, and therefore the stone has been targeted, shock waves are focused and skilled the body in such a fashion that their maximum energy is dispersed at the locale of the stone, with the intent of stone disintegration. The pulverized fragments then pass within the patient’s urine. The procedure works best for smaller stones. Other determinants for fulfillment with this treatment technique include stone composition and therefore the specific anatomic location of the stone within the tract.
