A member asked:
4 months ago, i had hydronephrosis with 9mm stone in urinary junction.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
? not treated : 9mm stone is too large to pass spontaneously and thus requires intervention either by extracorporeal-shockwave-lithotripsy (ESWL) or ureteroscopically by laser lithotripsy. You also need to know whether obstructing stone was causing hydronephrosis or cause is intrinsic ureteropelvic junction causing urinary stasis which predisposes to stone formation. Good Luck
