This is a timeline of urology, describing significant events in the development of the field. Recognition of urology as a separate specialty or subspecialty of general surgery is relatively recent.[1]
Contents
Big picture
| Time period | Development summary |
|---|---|
| Ancient history | Evidence of many diseases and even some surgical procedures date to ancient times, diseases that later would come under the purview of urology.[1] |
| 17th century | “Stone cutters”, or travelling lithotomists, practise bladder stone removal throughout Europe.[2] |
| 19th century | The development of the cystoscope contributes to the splitting off of urology from general surgery.[1] In the late century, urology as a specialty in its own right emerges. |
| 20th century | The field of urology develops at an astonishing speed.[2] Instrumental develops widely in the first half of the century, while many organizations and journals emerge in the second half. |
