Abstract

95 years ago, namely on October 12, 1926, through the efforts of 27 founders, including professors G.I. Turner, A.L. Polenov, R.R. Vreden and G.A. Albrecht, the first scientific society of orthopedic surgeons of Leningrad and the Leningrad region was created in our country, which continues to be an indispensable platform for the training of scientific personnel, the exchange of practical experience and research results directed by authoritative figures of domestic traumatology and orthopedics, the successors of the Leningrad school of orthopedic surgeons. The article summarizes the results of the society’s work during four periods of its activity: the first period of formation (1926–1933), the second period — work in the pre-war, war and post-war years (1934–1950), the third period — the intensive development of traumatology and orthopedics (1950–1990) and the fourth period — the modern rapid development of the specialty (since 1990). The main aim of the current activity and new areas of work are formulated.
