Frequently Asked Questions — Urology & Kidney Transplant

Dr. Shailendra Pratap Singh's OPD is available Monday to Saturday, 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the Institute of Urology & Kidney Transplant, Charak Hospital & Research Centre, Hardoi Road, Dubagga, Lucknow – 226003.

The kidney transplant cost in Lucknow at Charak Hospital ranges from ₹4,00,000 to ₹8,00,000 for a complete package including pre-transplant workup (HLA typing, crossmatch, cardiac evaluation), surgery for recipient and live donor, Transplant ICU stay (5–7 days), ward charges and first-year immunosuppression medications.

Yes. Dr. Singh performs all three types of laser kidney stone surgery at Charak Hospital:

► URSL — Ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy for ureteric stones (4–15 mm). Day-care, discharge same day.
► PCNL — Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy for large kidney stones (>2 cm) and staghorn calculi. Stay: 2–3 days.
► RIRS — Flexible ureteroscopy for complex or multiple intrarenal stones. Very low risk, rapid recovery.

All are minimally invasive with stone-free rates above 90%. The best option is chosen based on stone size, location and number after evaluation.
Dialysis is a life-sustaining treatment that filters waste from blood artificially (3 times/week, 4 hours per session) when kidneys fail — it does not cure kidney failure. Kidney transplant replaces the failed kidney with a healthy donor kidney, restoring near-normal kidney function.

Why transplant is better for eligible patients:
► Freedom from 3 dialysis sessions per week
► Transplant patients live 10–15 years longer on average
► Near-normal diet and lifestyle; return to work within weeks
► Better energy, bone health and cardiovascular outcomes
► Lower long-term cost than years of dialysis

Dialysis remains the bridge to transplant and for patients not suitable for surgery. Dr. Singh evaluates each patient individually for transplant eligibility.
Both are minimally invasive endoscopic treatments for BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia / prostate enlargement) — no open incision required:

► TURP (Transurethral Resection of Prostate) — tissue is removed through a scope inserted via the urethra. Standard procedure suitable for most prostate sizes. Hospital stay: 2–3 days. Relief from symptoms is immediate.

► HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate) — superior for large prostates (>80 gm). Completely bloodless, lower recurrence rate, catheter often removed next day. Hospital stay: 1–2 days.

Common symptoms needing treatment: weak urine stream, frequent urination especially at night, urgency, incomplete bladder emptying, recurrent UTI.
Eligibility criteria for kidney transplant:
► End-stage renal disease (ESRD) — eGFR below 15–20 mL/min, or on dialysis
► Compatible blood group and negative crossmatch between donor and recipient
► Medically fit — cardiac evaluation, infection and cancer screening must be clear
► A willing live donor (spouse, parent, sibling, child) or deceased donor through NOTTO

Pre-transplant workup at Charak Hospital includes:
HLA typing, T & B cell crossmatch, complete blood count, kidney and liver function, cardiac echo and stress test, infection screening (HIV, Hepatitis B/C, CMV, TB), urine culture, abdominal imaging and urological evaluation. All workup is available on-site.
Symptoms of urethral stricture (narrowing of the urine passage):
► Weak, split or spraying urine stream
► Straining or dribbling while urinating
► Incomplete bladder emptying; recurrent UTI
► In severe cases — complete urinary retention (acute emergency)

Treatment options at Charak Hospital:
► Optical Urethrotomy (OIU) — endoscopic incision, suitable for short strictures. Day-care.
► Urethroplasty (Buccal Mucosal Graft) — gold standard for long or recurrent strictures; a graft from the inner cheek is used to reconstruct the urethra. Long-term success rate >90%.
Without preventive measures, stones recur in 50% of patients within 5 years. Dr. Singh recommends a personalised recurrence prevention plan:

► High fluid intake — 2.5–3 litres of water daily (keep urine pale yellow)
► Stone type analysis — guides specific dietary and medication changes
► Reduce salt and animal protein; avoid high-oxalate foods (spinach, nuts, chocolate) for calcium oxalate stones
► Avoid high-dose vitamin C and vitamin D supplements without medical supervision
► 24-hour urine metabolic evaluation to detect hypercalciuria, hyperoxaluria or hypocitraturia
► Medications (potassium citrate, thiazide, allopurinol) as indicated
► Ultrasound KUB follow-up every 6–12 months for early detection of new stones
Do not ignore these warning signs — early consultation can prevent kidney failure:

► Frothy or foamy urine — protein leaking from damaged kidneys
► Blood in urine — pink, red or smoky brown colour, even if painless
► Swelling in legs, ankles or face — fluid retention from poor kidney filtration
► Severe flank or back pain — kidney stone, obstruction or infection
► Reduced or absent urine output — acute kidney obstruction or failure
► High blood pressure that is hard to control — renal hypertension
► Persistent fatigue, nausea and itching — advanced CKD

OPD: Monday–Saturday, 10 AM–3 PM. Call 0522-666-4444 for same-day consultation.
The most common sign of bladder cancer is painless blood in urine (haematuria) — never ignore this symptom. Diagnosis is confirmed by cystoscopy and biopsy.

Treatment at Charak Hospital:
► TURBT (Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumour) — for non-muscle-invasive cancer, followed by BCG or mitomycin instillation to prevent recurrence
► Radical Cystectomy — bladder removal with ileal conduit or neobladder construction for muscle-invasive cancer
► Surveillance cystoscopy every 3–6 months to detect recurrence early

Early-stage bladder cancer (non-muscle-invasive) has a 5-year survival rate above 90% with timely treatment.
