summary

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is a new and relatively authoritative operation for the treatment of renal calculi. It is a minimally invasive operation, but it still has certain risks. Now let's talk about the cost of percutaneous nephrolithotomy.

How much is the cost of percutaneous nephrolithotomy

First: percutaneous nephrolithotomy is a minimally invasive operation. Generally speaking, the charging standard of the second grade a hospital is different from that of the third grade a hospital. The cost of minimally invasive operation in the second grade a hospital may be about 6000 yuan, which of course depends on the specific situation. Generally, patients can be discharged after one week in hospital. Before the operation, intravenous pyelography and renal dynamic imaging should be done. The effect is not very great. Routine examination is only necessary. It takes about one week to be hospitalized, and the cost is about 5000 yuan.

Second: percutaneous nephrolithotomy is a relatively advanced minimally invasive surgical lithotripsy and lithotripsy new technology; the cost is generally about 15000-20000 yuan; generally, it is more than 2.0 cm for larger urinary stones. It is suggested that non-invasive extracorporeal shock wave lithotriptor should be selected for the treatment of primary and residual urinary stones less than 1.0 cm, whether simple or multiple.

Third: each hospital charges are not the same, the cost is still uncertain, different hospitals and regions are also very different. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a common method for the treatment of renal calculi at present. Due to the small trauma to human body, the effect of PCNL is good and the recovery of patients is fast, so the cost is also more expensive than the traditional open lithotomy.

matters needing attention

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is a traumatic operation, so we need to do a good job in the prevention and treatment of postoperative complications, postoperative exercise, drink more water to facilitate the discharge of stones.
