Choose from the complete range of kidney stone treatment options
Kidney stones are relatively common and tend to affect people between the ages of 30 and 60 years. It is thought that up to 20% of men and 5% of women develop severe pain as a result of kidney stones, which develop when waste products in the kidneys form hard, stone-like lumps.
Small kidney stones (up to 4mm in diameter) can often travel through the urinary system and be passed out in the urine. However, larger stones can block the ureter or urethra, causing severe pain and raising the risk of infection, kidney damage and kidney failure.
In the case of large kidney stones, treatment is needed to remove or break down the stones. The type of urological procedure required will depend on the size and location of the individual patient's kidney stones.
Modern kidney stone treatment not only requires modern instruments (e. g. Holmium laser, specific rigid and flexible endoscopes etc.), but also a detailed examination of the metabolic situation of the patient by analysing urine, blood and stones with a view to preventing future kidney stone disease. We offer the complete range of conservative, minimally invasive and surgical kidney stone treatment options.
