Suggest Treatment For Kidney Stone
Hello Thanks for query . Your 52 years old mother has been detetced to have stone of a size of 40 mm in her Right kidney . Considering the size of the stone being 4 cm in size Extra Corporeal Shck Wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is not possible in her case . The only best treatment option for her is to get the stone fragmented and removed by a procedure called Per Cutaneous Nephro Lithotomy (PCNL). This surgery is done by a well trained qualified Urologist under spinal anesthesia and she has to be hospitalized for 3 days . Diabetes and hypertension that she has will be taken cared of by a team of physicians . Dr.Patil.
