Service Overview:
RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) is a highly advanced, minimally invasive laser-based procedure used for the removal of kidney stones through the natural urinary tract without any cuts or external incisions. It is one of the safest and most effective options for treating small to medium-sized kidney stones, especially in hard-to-reach areas.

What is RIRS?

In RIRS, a flexible ureteroscope is passed through the urethra and bladder into the kidney. Using high-precision Holmium laser technology, the stone is broken into fine dust or fragments, which are either removed or left to pass naturally through urine.

This procedure is performed without any cuts or stitches, making it ideal for patients looking for a less invasive alternative to conventional stone surgeries.

When is RIRS Recommended?

Dr. Nitin Gupta may suggest RIRS for:

• Small to moderate-sized kidney stones (usually <2 cm)

• Stones in difficult or inaccessible areas of the kidney

• Failed previous stone removal attempts

• Patients with bleeding disorders or on blood thinners

• Children or elderly patients needing gentle procedures

Advantages of RIRS:

• Completely scar-free – no incisions or cuts

• Fast recovery – most patients go home within 24 hours

• High precision using advanced laser technology

• Less pain and fewer complications compared to open or puncture-based surgeries

• Safe for patients unfit for open surgery or PCNL

What to Expect After the Procedure:

• A temporary DJ stent may be placed for smooth urine drainage

• Mild discomfort or burning may occur for a few days

• Light activities can be resumed within 2–3 days

• Follow-up scan is done to confirm complete stone clearance
