A laser for a stone will cost about$10,000-15,000. Stone surgery with laser is a minimally invasive procedure, which requires the use of a ureteroscope or ureteroscope. Because ureteroscopes and ureteroscopes are relatively expensive instruments, they are difficult to operate and cost more. Ureteroscopy for ureteral stones is only suitable for stones in the middle and lower ureter. If the stone is located in the upper part of the ureter or in the kidney, it needs to be treated by ureteroscopic flexible surgery. Ureteral chondroscopy is more technologically advanced and also more complicated to perform.
