Cystolitholapaxy is done to break up and remove bladder stones, relieve pain, improve urine flow, and prevent urinary tract complications.

You should see a doctor for cystolitholapaxy if you experience symptoms such as painful or frequent urination, blood in the urine, difficulty passing urine, recurrent urinary tract infections, or lower abdominal discomfort, which may indicate bladder stones.

Before cystolitholapaxy, your healthcare provider will provide instructions to help ensure a safe surgical procedure. This usually includes guidance on which medications to stop, when to fast before the procedure, arranging transportation and post-surgery home care, and understanding what to expect on the day of the procedure and during recovery.

Bladder stones can be broken up and removed with a minimally invasive surgery called cystolitholapaxy. In order to find the stones, your surgeon will put a cystoscope, a thin, flexible tube with a camera, into your bladder through your urethra. The stones are then fragmented into small pieces by a laser and removed from the bladder using a fluid. Anaesthesia is used during the procedure, either local to numb the area or general to put you to sleep and prevent pain.

The average duration of cystolitholapaxy is between thirty and sixty minutes. After spending time in the recovery area, most patients are able to return home the same day.

  • Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
  • Scar Tissue Formation
  • Excess Bleeding
  • Blood Clots
  • Regrowth of Bladder Stones
  • Reaction to Anaesthesia

Bladder stones can be treated with a minimally invasive treatment called cystolitholapaxy. It has a quick recovery period and efficiently eliminates stones. Untreated bladder stones may result in recurrent UTIs and irreversible kidney or bladder damage.

After two weeks, most patients have fully recovered and can resume their regular eating and drinking habits at home. To prevent blood clots, it is recommended to walk frequently and use the stairs; nevertheless, heavy lifting and intense physical activity should be avoided at this time. Pain can be controlled with medicines, and patients can take regular showers or baths. Anaesthesia may cause constipation; in such cases, stool softeners may be indicated.

Cystolitholapaxy is a highly effective, minimally invasive procedure for treating bladder stones, with success rates of 89%-100% for complete stone clearance in a single session.
