Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery at Vatsalya Mother and Child Hospital in Bhugaon - Bavdhan
Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS) is a highly advanced, minimally invasive laser procedure used to remove kidney stones without any cut or incision. At Vatsalya Mother and Child Hospital in Bhugaon, our expert urologists perform RIRS using flexible ureteroscopes and Holmium:YAG or Thulium fiber lasers for safe, painless, and effective kidney stone removal.
RIRS is ideal for patients with small, medium, or complex kidney stones, especially when other procedures like ESWL or PCNL are not suitable. We serve patients from Bhugaon, Bavdhan, Pirangut, Paud Road, Bhukum, Mulshi, and surrounding areas.
What Is RIRS?
RIRS involves passing a flexible endoscope through the urinary tract (urethra → bladder → ureter → kidney) to reach the stone. The stone is then:
- Lasered into very fine dust (Dusting)
- Removed using small baskets (if needed)
There is no external cut, no stitches, minimal pain, and very fast recovery.
When Is RIRS Recommended?
- Small to moderate kidney stones (up to 2 cm)
- Stones located in difficult kidney positions
- Failed ESWL or medical therapy
- Patients who cannot undergo open/PCNL surgery
- Patients seeking painless, scarless treatment
- Stones in children or elderly patients
