Patient's question:
How to treat a 0.4×0.5cm kidney stone that doesn't hurt and has no impact on daily life?Doctor's answer:
Hello: It is recommended to use the latest patented extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) device for stone removal treatment; and to undergo early treatment as soon as possible, as the stone removal effect is better. First, it should be explained that the principle of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is entirely different from that of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL). The advantage of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) lies in its lack of any damage to organs, thorough stone removal, minimal pain for patients, and easy acceptance. In contrast, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) causes organ damage and is more painful.Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) technology is a national patented technology that adopts high-frequency superconducting fluid dynamic shock wave three-dimensional integrated stone removal technology, assisted by large digital ultrasound localization. It features accurate positioning, rapid stone removal, and effective treatment of bile duct stones, ureteral stones, allowing stones to pass as they are removed, especially for in the intrahepatic bile ducts, with thorough stone removal. The most prominent feature of this device is its user-friendly operability, thorough stone removal for various types of stones, wide range of indications, minimal side effects on the human body, painless stone removal process, no need for hospitalization, and low treatment costs, making it easily accepted by patients. It is a reliable, effective, simple, and practical treatment device with unique equipment and technical advantages. Therefore, it is the optimal choice for treating various types of stones.
The indications and scope of treatment for extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) are as follows:
(1) For various renal and ureteral stones smaller than 1.2 cm, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) should be the preferred treatment. This is because it causes no kidney damage, ensures thorough stone removal, is safe and painless, and avoids the side effects of shock wave lithotripsy. If the stone diameter exceeds 1.2 cm, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) should first be used for crushing, followed by extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for thorough stone removal, achieving complementary advantages.
(2) This device is particularly suitable for acute ureteral stones and the resulting hydronephrosis, renal swelling, ureteral swelling, ureteral expansion, and renal colic. It can quickly remove ureteral stones, relieve pain immediately, and rapidly alleviate symptoms, making it the preferred treatment for ureteral stones.
(3) For patients with multiple renal stones complicated by contralateral ureteral stones, the ureteral stones should first be removed, followed by the removal of multiple renal stones, to prevent the formation of a "stone street" in the ureter.
(4) For large renal stones that remain in the lower pole of the kidney after ESWL, the small stones left in the renal pelvis and calyces are the best indication for extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for thorough stone removal. This is because the handheld high-frequency superconducting shock wave probe can directly touch the stones in the lower pole of the kidney, moving them into the renal pelvis and ureter for removal.
(5) Suitable for the treatment of in the gallbladder smaller than 4 mm. It ensures thorough stone removal without pain and is the best choice for treating gallstones. It is also the only device worldwide capable of removing stones in the liver and bile system.
(6) Particularly suitable for the treatment of in the intrahepatic bile ducts and the common bile duct. It ensures thorough stone removal, rapid symptom relief, and no pain or side effects. It solves the global medical of poor treatment outcomes in traditional medicine, the difficulty and incompleteness of surgical stone removal in modern medicine, and the occurrence of severe complications and postoperative recurrence.
(7) For the treatment of various types of stones due to complications such as urinary tract infections leading to pyelonephritis, ureteritis, cystitis, prostatitis, urethritis, or infections in the liver and bile system leading to cholecystitis or intrahepatic and extrahepatic cholangitis, antibiotics should first be used for anti-inflammatory treatment. ESWL should only be performed after the inflammation subsides.
According to clinical observations, Professor Chen Bangjing believes that extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy is the leading new technology for treating stones worldwide, with a national patent. It is the preferred method for treating renal stones, ureteral stones (which are generally removed within two hours), gallstones, and extrahepatic bile duct stones, as well as intrahepatic bile duct stones. Its completely thorough stone removal effect, lack of any organ damage, and low cost have benefited a vast number of patients. For stones beyond the scope of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy should first be used for crushing, followed by stone removal. For large renal cast stones and gallstones, surgical stone removal is recommended as soon as they are detected.
