Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS) is an advanced laser procedure for treating kidney stones without making any incisions on the kidney.
How it works
The instrument is passed through the urethra, into the bladder, and then up into the kidney. A laser is then used to crush the stones into dust, which are naturally flushed out with urine.
Benefits
