Every day, we at the Karazanashvili Robotic Center receive hundreds of different questions related to the diagnosis and treatment of urological diseases. Our goal is to bring more clarity to this topic and provide specific solutions. For this, we have prepared a series of posts. We begin with a very topical issue in Georgia – the diagnosis and treatment of urolithiasis (kidney stone disease):
- Is it possible to prevent the formation of kidney stones?
- What method should I use to dissolve a kidney stone so that it doesn’t form again?
- Is it possible to dissolve kidney stones with medication?
- Why should I come to the Karazanashvili Robotic Center specifically for kidney stone dissolution?
- Why don’t you write the cost of stone dissolution?
- After dissolving the stone with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), how long do I need to stay in the hospital?
- How long can a double-J stent be in place?
- I have been diagnosed with a large stone that does not cause discomfort. What could happen if I don’t treat it?
- I have stones in both kidneys. Is it possible to dissolve them in one session?
- Do you also treat gallstones?
