Patient's question:
The doctor recommended using laser lithotripsy to treat my kidney stones, but I am afraid that this method may cause side effects.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Generally speaking, ureteral laser lithotripsy does not have any side effects. The treatment of ureteral stones is divided into two categories: surgical and non-surgical. Among them, non-surgical therapies mainly include drug-induced stone passage, endoscopic stone removal, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), and several other major types. Shenzhen Kunlun Urology Hospital has made significant achievements in the treatment of urinary system stones. It is staffed by experienced stone disease specialists and is equipped with advanced international devices such as the German Holmium Laser Enucleation System, the fifth-generation dual-positioned compound pulse extracorporeal shock wave lithotripter, as well as percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), ureteroscopy, cystoscopy, etc. The hospital has a mature and safe minimally invasive treatment technology for urinary system stones.
