Dr. Francisco R. Rodriguez answered

Specializes in Urology

Kidney stone: What that means is that you a stone, 8mm in size in the mid portion of your kidney, probably inside a calyx. It may or may not give you symptoms of flank pain, colic, hematuria. That size stone would be difficult to pass and probably needs to be treated with lithotripsy.
