Ureterolithotomy (Igeterolithotomy)

However, if the stone is located higher, then it is necessary to perform a ureterolithotomy. This is a serious operation that is performed under general anesthesia and requires a highly qualified surgeon.

During the operation, the surgeon makes an incision at the location of the stone and removes it. After this, the ureter is ligated and stitched. The patient remains in the hospital for several days for observation and recovery.

Ureterolithotomy is an effective treatment for ureteral stones. However, like any operation, it is not without risks and complications. Bleeding, infection, and damage to surrounding tissues and organs may occur.

After surgery, the patient is advised to follow a diet and drinking regime to prevent re-formation of stones. Drug therapy may also be prescribed to prevent stone formation.

So, ureterolithotomy is an effective method for treating ureteral stones, which is performed only when other methods are ineffective. However, like any operation, it is not without risks and complications, so before carrying out it is necessary to carefully evaluate the indications and contraindications.



Ureterolithotomy is a surgical procedure to remove stones from the ureters. It is performed when the stone cannot be removed using other treatment methods, such as drug therapy or ultrasonic crushing.

Ureterolithotomy can be performed either open or laparoscopically. Depending on the location of the stone in the ureter, the procedure may be performed through an incision in the skin or through small punctures.

Before the operation, the patient is prepared for anesthesia and put into a state of anesthesia. The surgeon then makes a small incision in the skin and inserts instruments into the bladder. After this, he removes the stone from the ureter and removes it from the bladder.

After the stone is removed, the patient may experience pain and discomfort for several days. However, in most cases, after surgery, patients recover quickly and can return to normal life.

In general, ureterolithotomy is an effective method for removing stones from the ureter, which avoids serious complications and preserves the patient's health.



Ureterotomy is a surgical procedure aimed at removing stones located inside the urinary tract. This method is often used to treat urolithiasis, in which stones form in the kidneys or bladder and can cause pain, infection, or other complications.

The ureterotomy endoscopic procedure involves the doctor using a thin tube - a ureteroscope - to insert it into the urinary tract, ending up in the desired section of the canal. A small tool is attached to the end of the tube, which unpacks the stone and is then removed outside.

All entrances and exits between the urinary tract and the body will be completely closed with threads, so the patient will not need to return home after the procedure. Also, the re-formation of stones near the bladders will be significantly reduced and life expectancy will increase.
