Abstract

As the ancient philosopher Juvenal once mused, "Mens sana in corpore sano" — a sound mind in a healthy body [1]. The perpetual interplay between our mental faculties and physical well-being lies at the heart of the mind-over-body dilemma. This age-old debate, akin to the philosophical wrestling match between idealism and realism, finds an unexpected arena in the field of orthopedics. It compels us to contemplate how these contrasting philosophical perspectives can cast fresh light on clinical practice and medical research within orthopedics.
