This is a timeline of orthopedics, listing significant events on the development of the field.

Big picture

Time period Development summary
Ancient times Orthopedic principles start development and use already in primitive times. The Egyptians describe ways to recognize and manage common orthopedic conditions. The Greeks and Romans subsequently begin to study medicine in a systematic manner, and greatly improve our understanding of orthopedic anatomy and surgical technique.[1]
16th century Until the 16th century, the majority of medical theories were heavily influenced by the work of Hippocrates. The scientific study of anatomy gains prominence during this time, especially due to the work done by great artists, such as Leonardo Da Vinci.[1]
18th century The modern term orthopedics is coined.[2]
19th century Three landmark discoveries in orthopedics make surgeries safe, painless and enthusiastic. These are the development of principles of antisepsis by Joseph Lister, the discovery of ether anesthesia in 1846 by William Morton and the invention by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen of X-rays, which would revolutionize the way of making a diagnosis in orthopedic cases.[3]
20th century Rapid development continues to better control infections. It further develops and introduces novel technology. The World Wars contribute a lot to the development of core orthopedics by producing countless number of patients requiring amputation, debridement, fracture management, tendon surgeries, etc.[3]


Full timeline

Year Event type Details Location
1600BC Literature The Edwin Smith papyrus, an ancient Egyptian medical text, describes the reduction of a dislocated mandible, signs of spinal or vertebral injuries, description of torticollis, and the treatment of fractures such as clavicle fractures. The document also discusses ryt, which refers to the purulent discharge from osteomyelitis.[1] Egypt
430BC–330BC Literature The Hippocratic Corpus is compiled as a collection of medical works strongly associated with the physician Hippocrates and his teachings. It contains text that applies specifically to the field of orthopedic surgery. For example, this text discuses shoulder dislocations and describes various reduction maneuvers. The Hippocratic Corpus also describes the correction of clubfoot deformity, and the treatment of infected open fractures with pitch cerate and wine compresses.[1]
16th century Literature Spanish texts talk about the Aztecs use of reduction of fractures, as well intramedullary fixation using fir branches.[4] Mexico
1597 Literature Scottish surgeon Peter Lowe publishes his A discourse of the Whole Art of Chirurgerie, which uses the term amputation for the first time.[5] United Kingdom
1741 Field development French physician Nicolas Andry is credited with the term orthopaedics, taken from the title of his 1741 book Orthopédie on childhood deformity correction.[6] The term is a composite of 2 Greek words: orthos, meaning “straight and free from deformity,” and paidios, meaning “child”.[1] France
