How many hours does urinary calculus surgery take?

Urinary calculi are urinary calculi. Urinary calculi surgery takes several hours and should be analyzed in combination with the actual situation.

In general, if the diameter of urinary calculi is more than 2 cm, the probability of natural excretion is considered small, and surgery is usually recommended. There are many ways to operate urinary calculi. If minimally invasive surgery is required, such as ureteroscopy, percutaneous nephrolithotomy, etc., the stones can be removed after 1-2 hours. However, if open surgery is required, it will take longer, usually more than 3 hours to complete the operation.
