Endourology treats urinary tract conditions from the inside, using thin cameras and instruments passed through the natural urinary passage or through a tiny keyhole so that large cuts are avoided. It is the main approach for stones, blockages and prostate enlargement. Patients looking for kidney stone or laser urology treatment in Mumbai most often receive this treatment.
Imaging decides the approach. Small stones may pass with medicines, while others need laser fragmentation through a telescope or removal through a small opening in the back for large stones. Recovery is generally faster than with open surgery, though a temporary stent or catheter may be needed. Risks include bleeding, infection, injury to the urinary tract, stone fragments left behind and the need for repeat procedures.
