In 1579, Paré in described an open fracture of the forearm.
In 1814, the Italian physician Monteggia described fracture of the proximal shaft of the ulna associated with dislocation of the radial head.
In 1847, the French surgeon Malgaigne described in detail numerous patterns of forearm fractures Malgaigne also presented a detailed demographic breakdown of fractures in terms of age and sex.
In 1923, Helferich a German surgeon in the third edition of his atlas presented a fracture of the proximal ulna associated with dislocation of the radial head.
In 1934, the Italian surgeon Galeazzi described a fracture of the distal third of the radius associated with dislocation of the ulnar head in the distal radioulnar joint.
