It is an endoscopic surgical procedure used to remove kidney stones. In this method, a scope is passed through the urinary opening (urethra) into the bladder, and then, it is moved up [retrograde (upper urinary tract)] to reach the kidney.
Retrograde intra-renal surgery (RIRS) is a procedure for doing surgery within the kidney using a viewing tube called a fiber-optic endoscope.
In RIRS the scope is placed through the urethra (the urinary opening) into the bladder and then through the ureter into the urine-collecting part of the kidney. The scope thus is moved retrograde (up the urinary tract system) to within the kidney (intra-renal).
Kidney can be reached without opening a hole in the abdominal wall, and the stones can be completely broken and cleaned with the flexible Reno-scope and laser by entering through the urinary canal. This allows patients to be discharged sooner and return to their daily lives in a very short period of time.
RIRS is performed by a specialist, A Urologist with special expertise in RIRS. The procedure is usually done under general or spinal anesthesia.
The advantages of RIRS over open surgery include a quicker solution to the problem, the elimination of prolonged pain after surgery, and much faster recovery.

Kidney pain is felt in your sides, back, belly or groin. It’s often mistaken for back pain. Kidney pain can be caused by kidney stones, kidney infection, an injury or kidney cancer. Kidney pain treatment depends on the underlying cause.
Kidney pain (renal pain) is discomfort near your kidneys. Your kidneys are two bean-shaped organs located just below your ribcage, on each side of your spine. Kidney pain doesn’t always mean there’s a problem with your kidneys specifically — but it does usually indicate an issue somewhere in your urinary system.
People often mistake kidney pain for back pain. But there are some key differences between kidney pain and how it feels compared to back pain.

What are the advantages of PCNL?
This procedure allows complicated stones to be removed through a minimal operation and the recovery time is much shorter than other traditional methods. Moreover, improved techniques and equipment make this surgery safer.
How is it done?
After giving general anesthesia, the patient is made to lie face down on the abdomen. A small hollow tube is placed inside the kidney through catheter or drainage tube. The tube is instilled with x-ray dye or carbon dioxide which helps surgeon to map the affected kidney.
After the surgeon precisely locates the stone, a small needle is inserted under x-ray vision to puncture the kidney. A wire is inserted through the tract and dilated about 1 cm to allow a telescope to pass inside the kidney.
Once the stone is visualized, the surgeon use high frequency sound waves to break the stone into fragments which are then removed. After operation, a tube is left in the kidney to ensure easy urinary drainage.

Cystolitholapaxy is a safe and effective operation to treat bladder stones. This is a minimally-invasive procedure where the stones in the bladder are destroyed with a laser and all the pieces are removed, without the need for any incisions. The procedure may be done at the same time as another procedure to treat the prostate, such as a transurethral resection of the prostate or Green Light laser vaporization of the prostate.
Perforation of the bladder is a typical complication. Beware of using the electrohydraulic lithotripsy near the bladder wall. Caution in grasping the bladder wall with the stone punch.
Most patients will stay in for at least one night after the operation, and the catheter can be removed when the urine is clear. You will be discharged when fit, and will be advised to rest at home for a few days. Specific advice will be given on discharge. After surgery, you may be asked to attend a follow-up appointment where an X-ray or CT scan can be used to check that all fragments of the bladder stones have been removed from your bladder.
