As an international trainer, Dr. Marek Zawadzki has taught RIRS techniques to 200+ doctors worldwide. Dr. Marek Zawadzki is also known for being the first in Central Europe to use AI-supported fusion of ultrasound and CT images during complex stone surgeries.
Diagnostic options for kidney stones
The clinic uses precise imaging to determine the size, location, and density of stones. These tests help the medical team choose between conservative therapy and surgical intervention. Available diagnostics include:
- Ultrasound (USG). This initial scan identifies stones in the kidneys or bladder.
- CT abdomen and pelvis. This scan is performed without contrast to map stone coordinates accurately.
Minimally invasive treatment methods
The hospital offers six different ways to manage urolithiasis, ranging from medical dissolution to combined endoscopic approaches. The choice depends on stone complexity and patient health.
- Chemolitoliza. This non-invasive therapy uses pharmacological agents to alkalinize urine and dissolve uric acid stones.
- URSL (Ureterorenoscopy with lithotripsy). A thin endoscope and laser fiber remove stones located in the ureter.
- RIRS (Retrograde intrarenal surgery). A flexible scope reaches stones inside the kidney calyces for laser fragmentation.
- UltraSlim RIRS. This method uses an ultra-thin 6.3F scope to reach nearly 100% of renal stones with less tissue trauma.
- ECIRS with AI support. This combined approach uses simultaneous percutaneous and retrograde access for complex stones in one session.
- MiniPCNL. A miniaturized endoscope enters the kidney through a small skin incision to treat large stones with minimal bleeding.
Patient facilities and recovery
LUX MED Szpital św. Elżbiety provides a high standard of comfort for international patients. The facility includes single VIP rooms and inpatient rooms equipped with private bathrooms. The hospital offers premium catering with personalized dietary options to support recovery. Most endoscopic procedures like URSL or RIRS allow patients to return home the same day or after one night of observation. For more detailed information, you may request a consultation on Bookimed.
