He has performed hundreds of urethral, bladder, and kidney surgeries, including cystoscopy, kidney stone removal with lithotripsy and laser, PCNL, and many other procedures. <\/strong><\/p>\n 1. Stones cause mechanical obstruction of the kidneys or ureter and obstruct urine flow. Increased pressure in the kidney causes pain.<\/p>\n 2. Stones predispose to urinary tract infection which causes symptoms.<\/p>\n It is important to recognize that many people have kidney stones without having any obvious symptoms for a long time. Some people can have large obstructing stones in the ureter with only mild vague abdominal or back discomfort.<\/span><\/p>\n Renal colic from kidney stones<\/p><\/div>\n Kidney stones typically cause symptoms only when they obstruct the ureter (tube that connects the bladder to the kidney); kidney stones often do not cause symptoms or only mild vague pain unless they start moving down the ureter or get infected.<\/p>\n Infection in the presence of kidney stones is a dangerous combination and usually requires prompt urological treatment. A ureteral stent <\/a>is typically inserted and definitive treatment is delayed until infection is completely treated.<\/p>\n Did you know?<\/strong><\/span> Dr. Shteynshlyuger<\/a> <\/strong>has performed over 1,000 kidney and bladder surgeries,<\/strong> including ureteroscopy, cystoscopy, ESWL lithotripsy, and PCNL<\/b>.
