As many as 156 kidney stones were removed from a 50-year-old patient at a Hyderabad hospital. Doctors at the Preeti Urology & Kidney Hospital, a leading renal care facility in the city, removed the kidney stones through keyhole opening. Doctors say this is the highest number of kidney stones ever removed from a single patient in the country, using laparoscopy and endoscopy, instead of conducting a major surgery.
