The Guiness Book of World Records records; Peter Baulman (Australia) had a kidney stone removed from his right kidney in December 2003 at The Gold Coast Hospital, Southport, Queensland, Australia, weighing 356 g (12.5 oz) and measuring at its widest point, 11.86 cm (4.66 in).

So surgeons in Hungary were taken aback when they removed a stone the size of a coconut from a man earlier today. Sandor Sarkadi underwent an abdominal operation in Debrecen, 150 miles east of Budapest, after doctors discovered he had a kidney stone inside him that was 17 centimetres in diameter. Mr Sardaki was rushed into an operation theatre in the Kenez Gyula Hospital when an X-ray revealed he was carrying around the gigantic lump. The delicate procedure to remove the stone, which weighed a staggering 2.48lbs, passed without incident. Kidney stones vary in size. They can be as small as a grain of sand or as large as a golf ball, which makes Mr Sarkadi's stone all the more remarkable.

Renal colic is typically caused by the passage of a kidney stone through the urinary tract, rather than inflammation of the kidney itself.

When you have a surgery to remove a kidney stone will I be in pain?
Most people experience some discomfort after kidney stone surgery, but it's usually much less than the pain caused by the kidney stone itself. The discomfort is typically well managed with pain medication, and the level of pain depends on the type of procedure. Minimally invasive treatments like laser stone removal (RIRS) and ureteroscopy (URS) generally involve less pain and a faster recovery than traditional surgery. A friend of mine recently had laser treatment for a kidney stone and mentioned that the pain before the procedure was far worse than the recovery. Within a few days, my friend was feeling much better and gradually returned to normal daily activities. Everyone's recovery is different, but following your doctor's advice, staying well hydrated, and attending follow-up appointments can help make the recovery process smoother and reduce the risk of future kidney stones.
