Kidney
The kidneys play a vital role in maintaining overall health by filtering waste products and excess fluids from the blood to form urine. Located on either side of the spine, these bean-shaped organs are essential for regulating electrolyte balance, blood pressure, and the production of red blood cells. Additionally, the kidneys help remove toxins, control fluid balance, and regulate the body’s acid-base balance. Any disruption in kidney function can lead to serious health complications, including electrolyte imbalances, fluid retention, and the buildup of waste products in the bloodstream.

Laparoscopic pyeloplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that treats a blockage in the ureteropelvic junction (PUJO)This operation is used to correct a blockage or narrowing of the ureter where it leaves the kidney. This abnormality is called a ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction which results in poor and sluggish drainage of urine from the kidney.
Treatment for kidney conditions may vary depending on the underlying cause and severity of the condition. In cases of kidney stones, minimally invasive procedures such as lithotripsy or ureteroscopy may be recommended to break up or remove the stones. For kidney infections or inflammatory conditions, antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications may be prescribed. In more serious cases, such as kidney cancer or chronic kidney disease, surgical interventions, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or dialysis may be necessary.
