Laser Ureteroscopy
Removes stones through the urethra, without incisions.
Ureteroscopy involves inserting a thin, flexible instrument (ureteroscope) through the urethra and bladder, up to the ureter or kidney, without the need for incisions.
With the help of a high-precision laser, the stones are fragmented into very small pieces or fine dust, which are then naturally eliminated through urine.
Advantages for the patient:
1. No cuts or scars
2. Outpatient procedure in most cases
3. Rapid and less painful recovery

Miniaturized Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy
Extracts large stones with a small puncture in the skin.
This is used for larger or difficult-to-access stones. The procedure involves making a small puncture in the skin of the back (just a few millimeters), through which a thin endoscope is inserted into the kidney.
Using special instruments, the stone is fragmented and extracted in a controlled manner.
Advantages for the patient:
1. Minimal incision, with an almost imperceptible scar
2. High effectiveness for large or complex stones
3. Lower risk of complications compared to open surgeries
