Today’s video:
CYSTOLITHOTRIPSY (Ultrasonic)

CYSTO - bladder
LITHO - stone
TRIPSY - breaking

Sa video na ito pinapakita ang pagbasag ng malaking bato sa pantog (bladder) na walang hiwa. Gamit natin dito ay ultrasonic lithotriptor. Ang ultrasonic lithotripsy ay gumagamit ng ultrasonic vibrations upang basagin ang bato at malabas ito sa katawan na walang hiwa or sugat.
Panoorin natin!

“The Philippines faces a significant doctor shortage. The physician-to-population ratio is estimated to be around 1 doctor per 2,800 Filipinos, which is much lower than the World Health Organization's (WHO) recommended ratio of 1 doctor per 1,000 people.”

Noong nakaraang sabado nagpunta tayo sa Maynila para mapalawak ang ating kakayahan sa Ultrasound Guided PCNL kasama ang mga beteranong Urologist na sina Dr Freddie Sy, Dr Juvido Agatep and Dr Dennis Lusaya. Ibinahagi nila ang kanilang kaalamanan para patuloy na maiangat ang galing at kalidad ng mga Urologist sa Pilipinas. Maraming salamat din kay Dr James Claveria at sa bumubuo ng Philippine Urological Association sa pag organisa ng workshop na ito hindi lamang para sa mga Urologist ng Pilipinas kung hindi para din sa mamayang Pilipino na matutulungan nito. Mabuhay PUA!

Kidney stones come in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes they also come in a variety of colors.

Purple kidney stones are a rare phenomenon. This purple color is usually caused by the buildup of indigo and indirubin, which are byproducts of tryptophan metabolism by certain bacteria.

Sa madaling salita po, impeksyon ang karaniwang sanhi ng ganitong kulay ng bato.
Kapag pabalikbalik ang UTI (urinary tract infection), ugaliin po natin magpatingin agad sa pinakamalapit na doctor.
