Kidney stone diagnosis
The diagnosis of kidney stones begins with a medical history and physical examination. Urologists will begin by asking you about your medical history and any symptoms you're experiencing. Common symptoms of kidney stones may include severe pain in the back or side, blood in the urine (hematuria), frequent urination, and pain during urination. When they started, how severe they were, and where the pain is located. They will also ask about your medical history, including any other medical conditions you have, any medications you are taking, and your family history of kidney stones.
Physical examination may be performed to check for signs of tenderness or pain in the abdomen or back. Urologist may also order some tests, including:
- Urinalysis: This test checks your urine for blood, white blood cells, bacteria, and crystals that may form kidney stones.
- Blood tests: These tests can check for high levels of minerals in your blood, such as calcium, uric acid, and cysteine, which can all lead to kidney stones.
- Imaging tests: Imaging tests can show the location and size of kidney stones. The most common imaging tests used to diagnose kidney stones are:
- X-rays: Plain X-rays of the abdomen and/or kidneys (known as a X-ray KUB) can help detect the presence of most kidney stones, especially those composed of calcium.
- Ultrasound: This test uses sound waves to create images of your kidneys, ureters, and bladder.
- Computed tomography (CT) scan: This test uses X-rays to create detailed images of your kidneys, ureters, and bladder. CT scans are more sensitive than ultrasounds at detecting kidney stones.
- Intravenous Pyelogram (IVP): This is a less commonly used test where a contrast dye is injected into a vein, and X-rays are taken as the dye moves through the urinary tract. It can provide information about the anatomy of the urinary system and the presence of kidney stones.
If you have a kidney stone, the urologist will need to determine the type of stone you have. This can be done by analyzing the stone if you pass it, or by performing a procedure called an ureteroscopy. Ureteroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure in which a thin tube with a camera on the end is inserted into your ureter to view the stone.
Once a kidney specialist doctor has diagnosed a kidney stone, they will develop a treatment plan based on the size, location, and type of stone.
Treatment for kidney stones / renal stones
Some kidney stones / renal stones can get past out on their own. If stones become lodged in the urinary tract, are associated with a urinary infection or cause complications require a surgical treatment.
Management and treatment of kidney stone depends upon the size of the stone, exact location and consistency of stone. Based on the patient's conditions initially, drug or medication therapy including diet and lifestyle modifications are advised. Still if stone not yet dissolved then kidney stone removal surgery is done to prevent the kidney function from deteriorating and prevent the further complications. In case of any complications such as urinary infection or kidney damage, open surgery is performed.
There are mainly these four types of non-invasive procedures and surgery which are performed based on the size and location of the stone:
- Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS) - Ureterorenoscopy using flexible ureteroscope is called Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS). In this surgery, stones can be removed from anywhere in the tract.
- Ureterorenoscopic Lithotripsy (URSL) with Holmium Laser – Surgeon uses a thin and flexible device called Ureteroscope to reach the kidney through the bladder and ureter when the stone is stuck within the ureter or bladder. The laser fiber is used to transmit the Holmium energy that breaks up the kidney stone and the surgeon removes the pieces from the urethra, smaller pieces passes through urine.
- Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) – In this non-invasive procedure, non-electrical shockwaves that are transmitted through the body to break the kidney stones into the smaller pieces so that they can pass through urine.
- Percutaneous Nephrostolithotomy (PCNL) Procedure - The surgeon creates a tiny incision in the side or the back and insert a nephroscope to locate and remove the kidney stones, in case of larger stones shock wave or lasers used to break them into the smaller pieces.

What are the side effects of kidney stone laser treatment?
As such, if performed meticulously there is zero side effects of kidney stone laser treatment. So we do not have any side effects with these treatments, and almost all the procedures are 100% curative. Unless there are some interaoperative setback like, if at all the laser burns the mucosa of the ureter or the kidney then the chances of bleeding or the stricture formation are the possibilities and even sometimes when there is infection prior to surgery, if the urine culture is positive when we go ahead with the kidney stone laser treatment.

Other side effects such as stricture urethra or bleeding can be avoided if the procedure is done meticulously.
