Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy (URSL) treatment in Bangalore by expert urologists at Genesiss Multispeciality Hospital.
URSL is a minimally invasive procedure used to remove stones located in the ureter. At Genesiss Multi-Speciality Hospital, URSL treatment is performed to relieve pain, eliminate urinary obstruction, and restore normal urine flow when stones do not pass naturally or continue to cause persistent symptoms.
URSL stands for Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy. It is an advanced procedure in which a thin, flexible scope is passed through the natural urinary passage to access the ureter. Laser energy is then used to break the stone into smaller fragments, which are either removed or allowed to pass naturally through urine.
