[Before the word was coined and ahead of his time -- the orthopedics of Ambroise Paré (1510-1590)].
In the writings of the famous Renaissance surgeon Ambroise Paré we can find very interesting orthopaedic aspects before Nicolas Andry in 1741 created the word "Orthopédie" and Jean André Venel in 1780 the first orthopaedic hospital. Some of these aspects will be presented with regard to their unchanged actuality.
