Kidney stones can cause severe pain, infection, and kidney damage if untreated. Surgical options include endoscopic procedures like URS (Ureteroscopy), PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy), and laser lithotripsy, which fragment and remove stones without large cuts. Minimally invasive approaches ensure complete stone clearance, reduced recurrence, and shorter recovery times compared to traditional methods. Preventive strategies, including dietary advice and metabolic evaluation, are also an essential part of stone management.
