An innovative, modern and extremely effective method for the laser removal of stones from the kidney pyelocalyceal system.
The fractured residues are removed with a special basket or excreted by the patient. The doctor performing the procedure can penetrate straight to the kidney interior and diagnose the extent of the problem.
Stone removal using the RIRS method enables the doctor to thoroughly examine the kidneys and remove the stones for good – the procedure is performed with a holmium laser, which completely destroys even the hardest stones. The method is used for stones from 0.5 cm to 2.5 cm in diameter. During the procedure an endoscope is inserted through the ureter and penetrates to the kidney.
It is performed under a general anaesthesia and is supervised by medical specialists. Stone crushing is fully controlled by the urologist. Furthermore, the kidney is not punctured, and there is no intervention in the renal parenchyma. The procedure is predictable, safe and minimally invasive, thus the number of its advocates increases steadily.
The greatest advantage of the RIRS method is its exceptional effectiveness. Due to the employment of the latest technologies,
the procedure is very efficient, low-invasive and safe.
The RIRS method uses the best technological solutions and the latest medical equipment.
