Ureterorenoscopy is an endoscopic procedure performed through the ureter, in order to inspect its condition.
This is an effective and safe endoscopic procedure performed through the ureter – a low-invasive inspection of the ureter with a ureterorenoscope, in order to crush and remove the stone causing pain.
ULRS is most commonly used for ureter stones causing renal colic, post-surgery ureter narrowing, and even ureter cancer. The procedure is performed under a general or spinal anaesthesia, so the patient feels no pain.
During URLS, the stone is fragmented and then removed through the ureter with special forceps or baskets. The inspection of the ureter interior is possible due to a precise optic system in the ureterorenoscope – a doctor views the lesions on the screen.
ULRS brings relief for kidney stones and is not encumbered with high risks of complications.
During the procedure other problems in the urinary system can also be detected.
The procedure brings relief for kidney stones – the patient can easily use a toilet.
ULRS is conducted under the strict control of a medical specialist in special, comfortable conditions, and the post-surgery catheter is removed after only a few days.
The patient goes back home on the day of the procedure, and post-surgery symptoms usually disappear after a few days.
URLS is recommended for people suffering pain and problems with urination. A specific indicator for stone removal is their diameter: 6–7 mm.
The most important and strict contraindications for this procedure are the patient’s poor health and problems with coagulation.
