Kidney trouble?

my friend was admitted to hospital yesterday with suspected kidney stones. after a numerous amount of tests, the doctors do not know what the problem is. the kidney is blocked!they are operating tomorrow morning. any ideas what this could be?how long do you think he will be kept in after op?
Answer:
IT MAY BE THE URETER TUBE THAT IS ATTACHED TO THE KIDNEY FOR FLOW MAY BE TOO SMALL, IT IS AN EASY FIX. IT IS AN AMBULATORY OPERATION, THE TUBE WILL BE STRETCHED. AFTER RECOVERY HE MAY BE ABLE TO GO HOME THE SAME DAY! WISH HIM WELL FOR ME! THERE MAYBE ANOTHER PROBLEM, BUT THAT IS ALL IT MIGHT BE. GOOD LUCK!
My aunt has been in and out since before Christmas - hers started as acute kidney failure which they said was caused by kidney stone. She went to get it blasted by laser but twice now they have apparently missed it - they'vfe believed they've got it but when she goes back for review its there again! Initially she was in hospital for almost 2 weeks till they put a stent (dilator) into one of the vessels from kidney to improve her function.Hopefully your friend will have a much easier time of it!!
