Sri Vijaya Puram, June 9: A 39-year-old man from Diglipur, a remote area in Andaman, got relief from a painful kidney stone that troubled him for two years—thanks to advanced care at Dr. Ritika’s Diagnostic Solutions and Multi-speciality Hospital, Garacharma.
Led by Dr. Praveena, a kidney stone and urinary tract super-specialist, the patient was diagnosed with a 1.57 cm stone in his right kidney. What followed was a *state-of-the-art laser stone surgery using the latest Thulium Fibre Laser and a flexible scope*—smaller than a pen!
Key Highlights from Dr. Ritika’s Hospital:
-Andaman’s first laser stone surgery
-First PCNL with flexible scope
-First calyceal stone surgery at the hospital
The surgery was performed through a tiny hole smaller than the stone itself, without stitches and with minimal blood loss. Despite the stone’s tough location, it was completely cleared in a single, safe procedure.
The patient is now recovering well. Dr. Ritika’s Hospital continues to set new standards in modern healthcare for the islands!
