This treatment is best for stones which have a size of about 2 cm in diameter. Under this, the
patient is admitted just before few hours of the surgery. He/she is given some
sedative before the surgery. A bag filled with water is placed on the abdomen of the patient. This is done to ensure
that shock wave targets the stone precisely.
Then about 1000-2000 shock waves are given to
patient which crushes the stones into smaller parts. These parts come out
usually via urine. This way one can get rid of the kidney stone easily.

This method generally
opts if the size of the stone is relatively bigger in size. Under this, the patient is treated with anesthesia before the operation. At first, a small flexible telescope and a small
tube are passed via bladder to the kidney. This is a tricky part and an experienced doctor is needed for this. It
helps the doctor to have a proper view of the stone and its position. The
patient is placed on the operation table facing down.
Then the doctor makes a small incision in his/her back. In case the stone is big
in size then it is broken in the piece
using special rays or shock waves, and then collected with the help of the tube
passed. An X-ray is taken at end of the procedure in order to ensure that
all the bits and pieces have been removed.
Both the process requires
the patient to rest for 2-3 days
only. There are no major precautions to be followed before and after the
treatment as well.
