ureteroscopy
 
Hello

I have a kidney stone not effecting my health but eventually might require a ureteroscopy, does anyone know if i need a new medical check after the operation?

if thats the case i will try to do it 45 days before the expiry of my easa medical so that i don't lose the time, thanks in advance

I'm not an AME, but you should look into this question specifically with the AME's who certify you. At least in the US, the FAA does not like kidney/ureteral stones, and a retained stone often requires a Special Issuance if at all.

Somebody has to state that the stone will not suddenly become symptomatic while you are flying a bunch of nuns to an orphanage somewhere.
