The Saratov Tuberculosis Institute as a local orthopaedic research cluster in the first half of the 20th century*

history of medicine, history of orthopaedics, Saratov Tuberculosis Institute, A. G. Eletsky, A. Y. Demi dov,G. P. VoskresenskyAbstract
This article examines institutional factors in the development of local orthopaedics in 1920‒1945. The study was carried out using unpublished documents from the State Archive of the Russian Federation, the State Archive of Saratov Oblast, the archive of the Research Institute of Traumatology, Orthopaedics and Neurosurgery of the Razumovsky Saratov State Medical University, and personal documents. Most of these documents are being in-troduced into scientific literature for the first time. The authors attempted to provide an insight into the role of the Saratov Tuberculosis Institute, created in 1924, as a local cluster for the formation of an orthopaedic research school,which influenced the development of orthopaedics in the Soviet Union. The development of local orthopaedics is usually viewed in the context of the work carried out by established institutional structures ‒ specialised research institutes and departments. The authors’ attempt to go beyond the existing tradition uncovered a new cluster for the establishment of orthopaedic science and practice based on the principle of interdisciplinarity.
