AINU removed 418 kidney stones from a 60-yr-old patient

Hyderabad, Mar 14 (UNI) In a groundbreaking medical achievement, the team of expert urologists at the Asian Institute of Nephrology and Urology (AINU), Banjara Hills, in the city has successfully removed 418 kidney stones from a 60-year-old man with only 27% kidney function.
This remarkable feat was accomplished through a minimally invasive procedure, marking a significant advancement in surgical techniques for kidney stone removal, the Institute said in a release here on Wednesday.
The Mallesh presented a unique challenge with an unprecedented number of kidney stones and severely impaired kidney function. Rather than opting for a conventional, more invasive approach, the team, led by Dr. K Purna Chandra Reddy, Dr. Gopal R. Tak, and Dr. Dinesh M, chose to utilize percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), a minimally invasive technique.
