Ureters & Ureterolithotomy

The ureters play a critical role in carrying urine from the kidneys to the bladder, but when obstructed by stones (calculi), they can cause intense pain and complications. At GMS, we specialize in advanced surgical procedures to remove stones that are too large, cause blockage, or fail to pass on their own. These stones often present with symptoms such as severe abdominal or groin pain, nausea, or urinary frequency, and if left untreated, can lead to infection or kidney damage. Depending on the case, procedures such as ureterolithotomy or minimally invasive techniques like ureteroscopy and laser lithotripsy are used to restore normal urinary flow.

Our experienced urology team also performs more complex surgeries such as Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for large kidney stones, Pyeloplasty to relieve obstructions between the kidney and ureter, and Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection in cases of prostate or bladder cancer. With state-of-the-art equipment and a patient-centered approach, we offer personalized treatment plans to ensure safe, effective recovery and long-term urinary health. Each procedure is carefully selected based on the type, size, and location of the stone or obstruction, ensuring the highest standards of care.
