Needs surgery: Bladder stones are treated with surgery. A urologist looks into the bladder with a cystoscope (telescope) and can use a laser to fragment the stone into small pieces. These are then removed via the cystoscope. He/she will also determine the cause of the stone - usually obstruction or a foreign body in the bladder and offer appropriate treatment.
