Endoscopic Surgery
Small, fiberoptic telescopes can be used to look into the internal "plumbing" of the urinary tract, including all the way up into the kidney. These scopes, which follow the body's natural passages, allow the use of lasers, baskets and other instruments to treat stones, tumors or other problems.
Recovery is significantly quicker than in traditional open surgery that would have had to cut muscle to reach these same spaces.
