In a remarkable feat of medical expertise, Dr. Parag Gulhane, Best Urologist in Hadapsar, successfully addressed the complex case of a 73-year-old diabetic and hypertensive woman with interstitial lung disease. The patient presented with persistent right-side abdominal pain, and a CT scan revealed a substantial 17 mm kidney stone. Given the patient's unsuitability for complete anesthesia, Dr. Gulhane opted for the challenging yet successful approach of Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS) under half-body anesthesia. The pre-operative CT scan and X-rays vividly showcased the stone's presence, with the latter capturing the impressive results of post-complete stone clearance, resembling golden dust after stone dusting. The patient experienced comfort just 16 hours post-surgery and was discharged the next day, a testament to Dr. Gulhane's skillful and patient-centric approach to urological care.
