No external cuts
Scope reaches the kidney through the body's natural urinary path. No incisions, no stitches, no scars.
Advanced RIRS — Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery using Holmium laser technology. No external incisions, no stitches, same-day discharge.
Others
Treatment depends mostly on stone size. RIRS is the first-line laser option for stones between 5–20mm — the most common range for adults in India.
Scope reaches the kidney through the body's natural urinary path. No incisions, no stitches, no scars.
Precisely fragments stones of any hardness into dust. Safe on surrounding tissue.
Most patients go home the same evening. Back to office in 3–4 days.
High single-session clearance rate in the ideal 5–20mm range.
Is kidney stone surgery possible without an incision? In this short video, Dr. Mahendra Singh Punia (Consultant Urology) explains how, with the help of advanced laser techniques, kidney stone treatment can now be performed without major surgery and without an incision.
Our urology team has treated over 10,000 cases across every stone type and complexity. Here's a quick guide to what exists — and how each is best treated with RIRS.
The most common kidney stone, formed from calcium binding with oxalate in urine. Typically 5–20 mm — the ideal size range for RIRS.
Forms in acidic urine; linked to gout, diabetes and high-purine diets. Can sometimes be dissolved with medication before surgery.
Infection-induced. Grows rapidly and can become very large. Needs urgent laser removal to protect the kidney.
Large, branched stones that fill the renal pelvis. Treated with a planned combined RIRS + mini-PCNL approach.
Stones stuck in the ureter (the tube from kidney to bladder), causing severe colicky pain. Removed via ureteroscopy and laser.
Rare, hereditary stones that tend to recur. Need expert management — RIRS plus a detailed metabolic workup.
Kidney stones can silently damage the kidneys if left untreated. If two or more of these apply to you, consult our urology team without delay.
Stabbing, wave-like pain in the flank (just below the ribs) that radiates down to the lower abdomen and groin.
Pink, red or brown tinted urine — even in small amounts is a reliable early warning sign.
Suggests infection alongside the stone. Often with a burning sensation while urinating.
Constant urge to go, often passing only small amounts of urine each time.
Severe colicky pain can trigger nausea. Seek urgent care if you can't keep fluids down.
Fever alongside flank pain means infection has spread. Call the hospital immediately.
A quick side-by-side of what changes when you choose the modern incision-free route.
RIRS is performed under spinal or general anaesthesia. A flexible scope travels through the natural urinary path to the kidney, where the Holmium laser does its work.
Ultrasound or CT scan, blood work, urine analysis, and anaesthesia fitness — all in a single visit. Insurance pre-authorisation begins.
Under anaesthesia, a flexible ureteroscope is gently guided through the body's natural urinary path up to the kidney.
A Holmium:YAG laser fibre is passed through the scope. Precise pulses fragment the stone into dust-fine particles.
DJ stent placed temporarily. Most patients go home the same evening or next morning. Only mild discomfort for 1–2 days.
A quick, painless OPD procedure removes the stent. A personalised diet plan is shared to prevent recurrence.
Guided by our philosophy "Har Ek Jaan Anmol" — every life is invaluable.
My mother had stones in both kidneys. Dr. Punia performed bilateral RIRS in a single sitting. She was walking in 3 hours, home next morning. Staff treated us like family.
Unbearable stone pain for 3 months. Surgery took 45 minutes. I was home the same evening, back to office in 4 days. No cuts, no stitches. Highly recommend Suvira.
Highly recommended Suvira hospital jaipur. Dr Mahendra Singh Punia and Dr Sandeep are empathetic, professional and patient-centric. Staff is courteous and facilities are also top-notch.
Recurring stones for years. Other doctors suggested open surgery. Dr. Punia made me stone-free in one sitting, no cut. Even gave a diet plan. Thankful to the team.
Clean hospital, punctual appointments, clear communication about cost before surgery. Dr. Punia explains everything in simple terms. My father's 18mm stone removed in under an hour.
Emergency brought my wife in with severe pain — 12mm stone blocking ureter. Team acted fast, RIRS done same day. Very grateful to Dr. Punia and the night staff.

RIRS (Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery) is an advanced, incision-free technique to remove kidney stones. A slim flexible ureteroscope is guided through the body's natural urinary passage up to the kidney, and a Holmium laser breaks the stone into dust-fine particles that pass out naturally in urine. No external cuts, no stitches, no scars.
The surgery itself is painless — performed under spinal or general anaesthesia. After surgery, most patients experience only mild discomfort for 1–2 days, easily managed with oral medication.
A standard RIRS takes 45–90 minutes, depending on stone size and count. Complex bilateral cases may take 90–120 minutes.
RIRS is ideal for stones 5–20mm. For larger or staghorn stones, RIRS may be combined with mini-PCNL — still minimally invasive. The exact plan is finalised after your imaging scan.
RIRS is one of the safest kidney stone procedures today. At Suvira, single-session stone-free rate is over 95%. Because there are no external incisions, complications are dramatically rarer than traditional or open surgery.
Most patients are discharged the same evening or next morning. Complex cases may need a 2-day stay. Back to office work in 3–4 days; full physical activity in 10–14 days.
Around 30–40% of stone patients recur if lifestyle remains unchanged. Every RIRS patient at Suvira receives a personalised diet plan based on stone composition analysis, which significantly reduces recurrence risk.
Yes. Bilateral RIRS in a single sitting is often possible, saving you time, cost and a second hospitalisation. Your fitness for this is assessed during the pre-op visit.
