Kidney Stones Treatment in Malaysia
Avg. Cost: RM 1,000
Overview
Kidney stones affect 10-15% of the population and are a major cause of urological morbidity. Treatment selection depends on stone size, location, and composition. ESWL (extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy) uses shockwaves to fragment stones non-invasively — suitable for stones <2cm in the kidney. URSL (ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy) uses a flexible scope to access ureteric and renal stones up to 2cm, fragmenting them with holmium laser. PCNL (percutaneous nephrolithotomy) is used for large (>2cm) or complex stones, accessing the kidney through the back. Miniaturised PCNL (mini/micro-PCNL) reduces trauma further.
