Ureteral Stone: Treatment Without Open Surgery

A ureteral stone is rarely a condition that can safely be left untreated for several weeks. If the stone blocks the lumen of the ureter and obstructs the normal flow of urine, treatment should be aimed at removing the stone and restoring normal kidney function.

At New Life Clinic, this problem can often be managed without open surgery. Patients can complete every stage of care within the clinic, from clinical assessment and diagnostic investigations to stone removal and follow-up after treatment.

When a stone is still located in the kidney, there is often time to observe the situation. The ureter is different. Once a stone becomes lodged there and obstructs the flow of urine, the issue is no longer simply the presence of a stone but a condition that may lead to serious complications if treatment is delayed.

For that reason, a urologist’s task is not limited to removing the stone. It is equally important to do so in a way that restores normal urine flow, preserves kidney function as much as possible, and allows the patient to return to everyday life without prolonged recovery whenever this can be achieved.

Patient Reviews

When people are diagnosed with a ureteral stone, they are usually concerned about much more than the treatment itself. They also want to know how quickly the pain can be relieved, what the procedure involves, and how long recovery is likely to take.

Нещодавно звернулися до клініки Нью-Лайф. Дуже сподобалося, швидше за все тепер обслуговуватимуся тільки в них, хоча раніше ходила в іншу приватну клініку, але тут у рази краще. У мами поставили діагноз сечокам’яна хвороба і довелося шукати клініку, де можуть зробити видалення каменів швидко та безболісно. Лікар Федоришин поставився до консультації дуже серйозно, оскільки в мами ще купа інших болячок. Провів огляд та попередньо здали аналізи, після яких було призначено процедури. Я дуже переживала, але все пройшло благополучно. Мама дуже переживала, що це боляче, але виявилося, що все виконується під місцевою анестезією і за кілька годин мама змогла пішки піти додому. Через два дні ми приїжджали на контрольне узд, а ще через тиждень приїхали видаляти камінь у іншій нирці. Просто не віриться, що все обійшлося так просто. Дякую вам, Родіоне Петровичу!

З’явилися проблеми з простатою, я думав не звертатися до лікарів, але щось дуже притиснуло, і доводилося з себе буквально видавлювати. Природно, рідні звернули увагу, що зі мною щось не так і завезли до лікаря уролога. Після обстеження було прийнято рішення зробити операцію. Зараз все чудово. Дякуємо лікарям Нью Лайфа за якісно випалену роботу.

Лечилась в клинике Нью Лайф по поводу каменей в почках. Это единственная клиника, где делают такое лечение. Но еще скажу, что там очень хорошие консультации по урологии, я только сейчас поняла, что мне надо делать, чтобы камни в почках повторно не образовывались, раньше никто не разъяснял.

How Treatment for a Ureteral Stone Is Organised at New Life Clinic

Accurate Clinical Assessment

Before treatment begins, the urologist determines how significantly the stone is affecting urine flow and whether urgent intervention is required.

Selecting the Treatment Method and Performing the Procedure

After the examination, the urologist recommends the most appropriate stone removal technique and carries out treatment based on the individual clinical situation.

Evaluating the Treatment Outcome

Following stone removal, the doctor assesses the restoration of normal urine flow and the condition of the kidney to ensure that the problem has been fully resolved.

Recommendations After Treatment

Once the stone has been removed, patients receive personalised advice on recovery, activity, follow-up examinations, and reducing the risk of future stone formation.

Treatment Methods Available at New Life Clinic

Following the examination, the urologist recommends the treatment method that is most appropriate for the individual clinical situation. Detailed information about each stone removal technique is available on the dedicated pages for those procedures.
