Dear Mukesh. Treatment of nephrolithiasis involves emergency management of renal (ureteral) colic, including surgical interventions where indicated, and medical therapy for stone disease. The size of the stone is an important predictor of spontaneous passage. A stone less than 4 mm in diameter has an 80% chance of spontaneous passage; this falls to 20% for stones larger than 8 mm in diameter. However, stone passage also depends on the exact shape and location of the stone and the specific anatomy of the upper urinary tract in the particular individual. For example, the presence of a ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction or a ureteral stricture could make passing even very small stones difficult or impossible. Techniques available to the urologist when the stone fails to pass spontaneously include the following • Stent placement • Percutaneous nephrostomy • Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) • Ureteroscopy (URS) • Percutaneous nephrostolithotomy |
