precision imaging was crucial for planning the minimally invasive procedure.
Through an incision less than 1 cm, the surgeons performed a miniaturized nephoscopy to
access the kidney stone. Using laser technology, they meticulously broke down the 2 cm
stone. To ensure proper drainage, a ureteral stent was placed post-procedure.
The patient’s swift recovery and discharge within 24 hours underscore the surgeons’
exceptional skill and efficiency. This success story is particularly notable given the failure
of previous attempts to remove the stone at another hospital.
The patient’s experience at SGH Dammam reflects the hospital's ‘Caring Like Family’
ethos, where the Kingdom’s finest medical professionals provide compassionate care
supported by state-of-the-art facilities and advanced technologies.
