  1. Follow the natural passage.

    Under anaesthesia, a thin telescope passes through the urethra and bladder into the ureter, the tube linking kidney and bladder.

  2. Make the stone smaller.

    A laser or another stone-breaking instrument divides the stone. The close-up illustrates laser treatment.

  3. Collect the fragments.

    A small basket can retrieve pieces. Some fine fragments may pass in urine; further treatment is sometimes needed.

  4. Support drainage and healing.

    A temporary ureteric stent may support drainage. If one is used, confirm when and how it will be removed.

After a procedure, fever, severe pain, inability to pass urine or heavy bleeding needs urgent medical assessment. Follow your hospital’s discharge instructions.
