Additional Information for Nephrostomy Tube
A Nephrostomy Tube is a medical device used in the field of urology. It is a thin, flexible tube that is inserted into the kidney through the skin to drain urine from the kidney into a collection bag outside the body. This procedure is typically performed when there is a blockage in the urinary system, such as a kidney stone or a tumor, that prevents urine from flowing normally. The Nephrostomy Tube allows for the bypassing of the blockage and helps to relieve pressure on the kidney. It is commonly used in cases of kidney stones, urinary tract infections, and kidney cancer.
