Kidney stones can cause intense pain and disrupt your everyday life. But with today’s medical advancements, treatment no longer needs to be painful or invasive.
At VSH Superspeciality Hospital, our Urology Department offers RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) — a scar-free, safe, and effective way to remove kidney stones using the latest laser technology.
Unlike traditional surgeries that require cuts or punctures, RIRS is performed entirely through natural urinary passages.
A thin, flexible scope is passed through the urethra and bladder into the kidney, allowing the surgeon to locate the stone precisely.
Once identified, the stone is broken into fine particles using a Holmium laser, which are then naturally passed out of the body through urine.
RIRS is ideal for patients who:
Have small to medium kidney stones (less than 2 cm)
Are not suitable candidates for open or keyhole surgeries
Prefer a faster recovery and no visible scars
Have stones in difficult-to-reach locations inside the kidney
No cuts or stitches
Minimal pain and blood loss
Quick recovery and early discharge
High success rate in complete stone removal
Suitable for all age groups
After RIRS, patients usually recover within a day or two.
A temporary stent may be placed to ensure smooth urine flow, which is later removed after a few days.
Doctors at VSH Superspeciality Hospital provide personalized diet and hydration plans to prevent future stone formation.
Our expert urologists are trained in advanced endoscopic and laser procedures, supported by state-of-the-art operation theatres and diagnostic facilities.
We ensure precision, safety, and comfort — from diagnosis to complete recovery.
At VSH Superspeciality Hospital, your health and comfort are our priority.
With advanced procedures like RIRS, we’re redefining how kidney stone treatments are done — making them simpler, safer, and faster.
If you’re struggling with kidney stones or have been advised surgery, consult our Urology experts to know if RIRS is the right option for you.
