RIRS for a Large Renal Calculus at Institute of Urology, Jaipur

RIRS for a Large Renal Calculus at Institute of Urology, Jaipur

RIRS for a Large Renal Calculus at Institute of Urology, Jaipur: A young female patient presented with complaints of intermittent flank pain and discomfort, which had persisted for several months. Upon evaluation and imaging studies, a large calculus was identified in the renal pelvis of the kidney. Given the size of the stone, traditional management options like extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) were not suitable due to the likelihood of incomplete stone fragmentation. After discussing the options with the patient, RIRS was recommended as the best approach to remove the stone without the need for surgical cuts.

Surgical Procedure: RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery)

The procedure was carried out under general anesthesia, utilizing a flexible ureteroscope to access the kidney through the natural urinary tract. With the aid of a laser fiber, the large stone was fragmented into smaller pieces, which were then carefully extracted without any incisions. The entire procedure was performed seamlessly, avoiding any damage to surrounding structures and minimizing discomfort for the patient.

Both Dr. M Roychowdhury and Dr. Rajan Bansal led the surgery, utilizing their extensive experience to ensure optimal results. Postoperative imaging confirmed the complete clearance of the stone, and the patient experienced a quick recovery without the need for prolonged hospitalization.
