Methods of Treating Urinary System Stones in Children
The formation of stones in the urinary system in children is a rather rare problem that can be hereditary or caused by metabolic disorders. Stones can form in the kidneys or bladder.
Stones that form in the kidneys can either grow to sizes that occupy the entire renal pelvis or, if small, pass into the ureter, causing pain, inflammation, and bleeding.
The endoscopic method has many advantages over traditional open surgery:
- No large incisions
- Less trauma
- Rapid rehabilitation
