Overview

North India's First 150-Watt Holmium Laser

Kidney stone disease is one of the most common urological conditions, affecting people of all age groups. While some small stones may pass naturally, many require advanced intervention to prevent severe pain, recurrent infections, kidney damage and loss of kidney function.

At ILSS Hospital, our Centre of Excellence for Kidney Stone Treatment is dedicated to providing comprehensive, minimally invasive and technologically advanced solutions for every type of kidney stone. Backed by decades of clinical expertise, cutting-edge laser technology and world-class infrastructure, we are equipped to manage everything from small ureteric stones measuring 5–7 mm to highly complex 50–60 mm staghorn and multiple kidney stones.

ILSS Hospital is proud to be the first hospital in North India to introduce the 150-Watt Holmium Laser by Jena Surgical — enabling faster stone fragmentation and dusting, greater surgical precision, reduced operating time, better clearance of complex stones, minimal trauma to surrounding tissue, and faster recovery with reduced hospital stay.

Our Services

Comprehensive Kidney Stone Treatment Services

A personalised treatment plan for every stone, based on size, location, composition and overall health.

01

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL)

A completely non-invasive procedure that uses high-energy shock waves generated outside the body to break kidney and upper ureteric stones into tiny fragments, allowing them to pass naturally through the urinary tract. Typically performed on an outpatient basis with no surgical cuts.

  • Completely non-invasive (no incision)
  • No surgical cuts or stitches
  • Usually a day-care procedure
  • Minimal recovery time
  • Quick return to daily activities

02

Ureteroscopy (URS)

A thin endoscope is passed through the natural urinary passage to remove or fragment stones located in the ureter. Using advanced laser technology, stones are broken into fine particles without any external cuts — suitable for mid, lower and impacted or recurrent ureteric stones.

  • No external cuts
  • Effective for mid & lower ureteric stones
  • Suitable for recurrent calculi
  • Minimal recovery time

03

Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS)

Among the most advanced minimally invasive kidney stone procedures available today. A flexible ureteroscope is passed through the natural urinary tract into the kidney, where the 150-Watt Holmium Laser precisely dusts or fragments stones without any incision — ideal for stones up to approximately 20mm, multiple kidney stones and high-risk surgical candidates.

  • No cuts or stitches
  • Minimal pain
  • Faster discharge
  • Early return to routine activities
  • Scarless treatment

Mini PCNL

Mini Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy is an advanced minimally invasive procedure used to remove medium to large kidney stones through a very small keyhole incision in the back. Compared to conventional PCNL, Mini PCNL uses a smaller access tract, resulting in less bleeding, reduced pain, quicker recovery and shorter hospital stay while maintaining excellent stone clearance.

  • Smaller access tract than conventional PCNL
  • Less bleeding
  • Reduced post-operative pain
  • Quicker recovery
  • Excellent stone clearance rates

Endoscopic Combined Intrarenal Surgery (ECIRS)

ECIRS represents the next generation of complex kidney stone surgery, combining the strengths of PCNL and RIRS in a single procedure. Surgeons approach the kidney simultaneously from two directions, providing exceptional visualisation and stone clearance — particularly valuable for massive kidney stones up to 50–60 mm and complex staghorn calculi.

  • Combines PCNL and RIRS strengths
  • Exceptional visualisation
  • Ideal for massive & staghorn stones
  • Reduces need for multiple surgeries

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Small stones measuring less than 5–6 mm may pass naturally with adequate hydration, medications and observation. Larger stones or those causing pain, infection, blockage or kidney damage usually require surgical treatment.

The choice depends on the size, location, number and hardness of the stone, kidney anatomy, presence of infection, and overall health. Every patient undergoes a detailed evaluation before a personalised treatment plan is recommended.

Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS) is a scarless, minimally invasive procedure in which a flexible scope is passed through the natural urinary passage into the kidney, and a high-powered Holmium Laser fragments the stone into tiny particles without any external incision.

ILSS Hospital is the first hospital in North India to introduce this technology, offering faster stone fragmentation and dusting, greater surgical precision, reduced operating time, better clearance of complex stones and faster recovery.

Yes, if preventive measures are not followed. Your doctor may recommend drinking 2.5–3 litres of water daily, dietary modifications, stone analysis, metabolic evaluation and regular follow-up.

Yes. Many patients with such conditions safely undergo advanced kidney stone surgery, supported by our multidisciplinary team, experienced anesthesiologists and dedicated ICU.

Most minimally invasive procedures require only a short hospital stay, and some minimally invasive therapies may even be performed as day-care surgeries.
