Big picture
| Time period | Development summary |
|---|---|
| Ancient times | "orthopedic principles were beginning to be developed and used during primitive times. The Egyptians continued these practices, and described ways to recognize and manage common orthopedic conditions. The Greeks and Romans subsequently began to study medicine in a systematic manner, and greatly improved 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.8 The scientific study of anatomy gained prominence during this time, especially due to the work done by great artists, such as Leonardo Di Vinci"[1] |
| 18th century | While the modern term orthopedics is coined.[2] |
| 20th century | "In the 20th century, rapid development continued to better control infections as well as develop and introduce novel technology." "the World Wars served as a catalyst in the development of the subspecialty of orthopedic trauma, with increasing attention placed on open wounds and proficiency with amputations, internal fixation, and wound care." |

For example, this text discuses shoulder dislocations and describes various reduction maneuvers. " " The Corpus Hippocrates also describes the correction of clubfoot deformity, and the treatment of infected open fractures with pitch cerate and wine compresses"[1] | ||
