Welcome to the comprehensive Endourology and Stone Disease treatment services at Bay Regional Medical Center. As a leading healthcare provider in the field of Urology, we offer advanced treatments and expert care for patients suffering from urological conditions, including stone disease.
Understanding Endourology and Stone Disease
Endourology focuses on minimally invasive procedures performed within the urinary tract, using small instruments and specialized equipment. It is particularly effective in treating stone disease, which refers to the formation of stones in the urinary system.
The Importance of Early Detection and Treatment
Stone disease can cause various symptoms such as severe pain, blood in the urine, frequent urination, and infections. It is crucial to seek timely medical attention to prevent further complications and alleviate discomfort. At Bay Regional Medical Center, our experienced urologists specialize in diagnosing and treating stone disease promptly, ensuring the best outcomes for our patients.
Treatment Options for Stone Disease
Our dedicated team at Bay Regional Medical Center utilizes cutting-edge technology and evidence-based practices to provide personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique condition. Our range of treatment options includes:
1. Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy (ESWL)
ESWL is a non-invasive procedure that uses shockwaves to break down kidney stones into smaller fragments, allowing them to pass through the urinary tract more easily.
2. Ureteroscopy
Ureteroscopy involves the use of a thin, flexible tube equipped with a camera to visualize and remove stones from the ureter or kidney. This procedure is performed without making any incisions.
3. Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL)
PCNL is a minimally invasive procedure used for larger or more complex stones. It involves making a small incision to access the kidney and remove the stones using specialized instruments.
4. Medical Management
In certain cases, medication, dietary changes, and lifestyle modifications may be sufficient to manage stone disease. Our experienced urologists will work closely with you to develop an effective medical management plan tailored to your needs.
