Overview

Ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy (URSL) is a minimally invasive procedure to remove kidney or ureteral stones.

A small endoscope is inserted through the urethra into the ureter or kidney, and stones are fragmented using laser energy. This approach avoids open surgery, provides rapid recovery, and reduces complications.

Indications for URSL Procedure

URSL is indicated for patients with stones not passing spontaneously, causing pain, hematuria, urinary obstruction, or recurrent infections. Stone size, location, and composition are assessed prior to treatment.

Procedure and Technique

Under anesthesia, a ureteroscope is inserted, stones are visualized, and laser lithotripsy is performed. Stone fragments are removed or allowed to pass naturally.

Recovery and Postoperative Care

Recovery involves hydration, pain management, and temporary stent placement if required. Most patients resume normal activities within a few days.
