Early contributions to the study of bone and joint disease in Glasgow, Scotland.
Despite the fact that the University of Glasgow had a well-developed medical school founded in the eighteenth century, a modern rheumatology unit was only opened in 1965. However, Glasgow physicians, surgeons, and pathologists contributed to the study of bone and joint disease before this date. This paper is a summary of their contributions.
