“…16 Therefore, it is necessary to perform drainage procedures such as PTCD beforehand. 17 Because 4% to 7% of patients with hepatolithiasis have intrahepatic bile duct carcinoma, it is necessary when performing PTCS or ESWL to perform a bile duct biopsy to ascertain the hardness and color of the bile duct wall and determine whether dilatation or constriction of the bile duct has resulted from inflammation or cancer. 18 These findings suggest that cholangiojejunostomy or T-tube drainage is sufficient for the treatment of stacked intrahepatic stones secondary to choledocholiths when unaccompanied by hepatic atrophy or intrahepatic bile duct constriction.…”

“…Shock wave lithotripsy Dr. H. Joachim Burhenne, shown in Figure 2, was a Harvard-trained radiologist from Germany and first physician to use extracorporeal SWL in Canada at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in the mid-1980's. 6 By comparison, Prof. Dr. Christian Chaussy and his clinical research team pioneered SWL and on February 7, 1980 Chaussy performed the world's first SWL procedure on a patient at the University of Munich. 7 Burhenne used SWL for the treatment of biliary stones and, by 1986, UBC and Dalhousie University were using it for the management of biliary and urinary tract stones.…”

Introduction: After the introduction of shock wave lithotripsy (SWL), ureteroscopy (URS), and percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), the subspecialty of endourology was born in the late 1970s. The purpose of this study was to report milestones in Canadian endourology, highlighting Canada’s contributions to the field. Methods: A review of the literature was performed from the late 1970s to the present. The literature review included bibliographic and digital resources. Additionally, records and recollections by various individuals were used, including some directly involved. Results: Endourology was born in Canada when SWL, URS, and PCNL emerged as minimally invasive treatment options for stones in the early to mid-1980s. According to our research, the first PCNL was performed at the University of Toronto in 1981. Dr. Joachim Burhenne, a Harvard-trained radiologist from Germany, first used extracorporeal SWL in Canada at the University of British Columbia (UBC) for the treatment of biliary stones. Treatment for urinary tract stones followed at UBC and Dalhousie University. The first worldwide use of the holmium laser for lithotripsy of urinary tract calculi took place at the University of Western Ontario. Other endourology milestones in Canada include the formation of the Canadian Endourology Group and the emergence of the Endourological Society-accredited fellowship programs at the University of Toronto and Western University in the 1990s. Canada hosted the 21st and 35th World Congress of Endourology and Shock Wave Lithotripsy annual meeting in Montreal and Vancouver, respectively. Conclusions: Canadian urologists have led many advances in SWL, URS, and PCNL over the past four decades, and for a relatively small community have made significant contributions to the field. Through the training of the next generation of endourologists at Canadian institutions, the future of endourology in Canada is bright.
