Orthopedics or orthopedic surgery is the specialty of medicine concerned with diseases and disorders of muscles and bones (musculoskeletal system).

Orthopedic surgeons treat a wide range of musculoskeletal disorders, like trauma (broken bones), sports injuries, degenerative diseases, back pain, congenital defects and tumors.

Procedures commonly performed by orthopedic surgeons include joint replacement surgery such as hip or ankle replacement, spine surgery, shoulder surgery, anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and disc replacement surgery.
