Kidney & Ureteral Stone
Kidney & Ureteral Stone Treatment
Kidney and ureteral stones—also known as urinary calculi—are hard deposits of minerals and salts that form in the kidneys or ureters. These stones can cause intense pain, urinary complications, and even damage the kidneys if not treated promptly. At Urosquare, our expert urologists, Dr. Ranjan Kumar Dey and Dr. Sumantra Dey, provide state-of-the-art care tailored to each patient’s condition and stone type.
