Osteomalacia, characterized by the softening of bones due to vitamin D deficiency, was first described in detail by British physician Sir Edward William Heneage Gibbes in the late 19th century. While earlier references to similar conditions existed, Gibbes's work in the 1880s is often credited with providing a clearer understanding of the disease. His contributions helped to distinguish osteomalacia from other bone disorders such as rickets.
