Hello there. I can understand your concern. No. I doubt . Since the size of the stone is too much I doubt it will be possible to remove it without surgery. But anyways, these days extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy is done. It's not a invasive procedure. Consult a urologist in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
