Advanced Bladder Stone Treatment
Cystolithotripsy is a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure used to treat bladder stones without open surgery. A small telescope (cystoscope) is passed through the natural urine passage, and the stone is broken into smaller fragments using laser/energy and removed safely.
No cut / no stitches (scarless)
Quick symptom relief in most patients
Safe stone fragmentation with endoscopy
Fast recovery with short stay
Bladder stones can cause painful urination, frequent urge, infections, and urine blockage. Cystolithotripsy is recommended when stones are large, symptomatic, or not clearing with medicines.
Frequent urge to pass urine, especially at night, due to bladder irritation.
Burning urination or pain in lower abdomen while passing urine.
Bladder stones may cause hematuria (blood in urine) due to friction.
Intermittent urine flow or complete blockage caused by stone obstruction.
The procedure is performed under anesthesia. A cystoscope is inserted through the natural urinary passage to reach the bladder stone. The stone is fragmented using laser/energy and removed safely.
Step 01
A thin scope is passed through urine passage to access the bladder.
Step 02
The stone is located inside the bladder using camera guidance.
Step 03
Laser/energy breaks the stone into small pieces safely.
Step 04
Stone fragments are removed and bladder is cleared completely.
Cystolithotripsy provides effective bladder stone clearance with minimal discomfort and faster recovery.
No open surgery required
Quick relief from burning and frequency
Safe & precise endoscopic technique
Short recovery and early discharge
Many patients are discharged early depending on stone size and symptoms.
Most patients resume routine work quickly as advised by the doctor.
Drinking adequate water helps prevent stone formation and supports healing.
It is done under anesthesia. Mild burning may be felt temporarily after the procedure.
Stones can recur if the cause is not treated (like prostate enlargement or urine retention). Proper evaluation helps reduce recurrence.
