Ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy (kidney stone removal) in LUX MED Szpital św. Elżbiety
About the clinic
Ureteroscopy with laser lithotripsy is a minimally invasive treatment for kidney stones available at LUX MED Szpital św. Elżbiety in Warsaw, Poland. The hospital is part of the LUX MED Group and maintains a 4.1 rating from 600+ patient reviews. Patients benefit from advanced surgical techniques like RIRS and ECIRS led by pioneers in the field of endourology.
Advanced Kidney Stone Removal Methods
The clinic focuses on Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS). This method uses a flexible scope passed through the urethra, meaning there are no skin incisions or scars. Doctors use a Holmium laser to turn stones into dust, which then passes naturally through the urine. For higher precision, the hospital offers UltraSlim RIRS. This technique uses a very thin 6.3F scope. It provides nearly 100% direct access to stones while increasing safety and comfort.
For large or complex stones, the surgical team performs Endoscopic Combined Intrarenal Surgery (ECIRS). This approach combines RIRS with MiniPCNL, which is a miniaturized procedure through a small incision in the back. This facility was the first in Central Europe to use AI support for these surgeries. The AI fuses ultrasound and CT images to help doctors plan the most effective path to the stone.
Expert Urology Team
Treatment is led by highly specialized urologists with significant surgical experience:
- Dr. Marek Zawadzki performed the first RIRS in Poland in 2014 and has completed 7,000+ procedures. He has trained over 250 other doctors in these techniques.
- Priv.-Doz. Dr. Tomasz Ozimek is a Fellow of the European Board of Urology. He specializes in personalized kidney stone therapy and complex endoscopic surgeries.
- Dr. Szymon Piotr Zapołoch has over 15 years of experience and holds FEBU certification. He focuses specifically on the endoscopic treatment of urinary stones.
Hospital Facilities and Recovery
LUX MED Szpital św. Elżbiety features five fully equipped operating rooms and a team of 200+ physicians. The facility uses miniaturized tools like the MiniPCNL to reduce tissue trauma and bleeding. Most patients experience a quick recovery and a fast return to daily activities. Depending on the complexity of the stone removal, discharge often happens on the same day or after a short hospital stay.
