GOMEZ DE LARA, José Luis. The initiators of orthopedics in Mexico. Cir. gen [online]. 2016, vol.38, n.2, pp.95-104. Epub 31-Mar-2020. ISSN 1405-0099.
The year 1833 is significant in the evolution of medicine in Mexico due to the foundation of the Establecimiento de Ciencias Médicas, that fused medicine with surgery, starting a new era in medicine in our country, although due to the political unrest, the Establecimiento had to move several times. Doctors and surgeons such as Luis Munoz, Pedro Escobedo and Rafael Lavista became interested in surgery of the musculoskeletal system, contributing with their teachings and research to the emergence and development of national orthopedics.
